Introducing Janus Design's Custom Cardboard and Corrugated Boxes
Cardboard boxes are one of the most widely used packaging materials, valued for their versatility, durability, and cost-effectiveness. They are commonly used for shipping, storage, and moving purposes. Here's some technical information on cardboard boxes:
Material Composition: Cardboard boxes are typically made from paperboard or corrugated cardboard. Paperboard is a single layer of thick paper, while corrugated cardboard consists of three layers: two flat outer layers and a wavy inner layer (corrugated medium). The corrugated design provides strength and rigidity.
Flutes: The wavy inner layer in corrugated cardboard is referred to as the "flute." Different types of flutes are available, each with varying strengths and thicknesses. The common flute types are A, B, C, E, and F, with A being the thickest and F being the thinnest.
Board Grades: The strength and durability of cardboard boxes are determined by their board grades. The most common grades include single-wall (one layer of corrugated cardboard), double-wall (two layers), and triple-wall (three layers). Higher board grades offer increased protection and load-bearing capacity.
Box Styles: Cardboard boxes come in various styles and designs to suit different needs. Some common styles include regular slotted containers (RSC), half-slotted containers (HSC), die-cut boxes, telescopic boxes, and more.
Dimensions: Cardboard boxes are available in a wide range of dimensions to accommodate various items. Standard box measurements are typically specified by their length, width, and height.
Burst Strength: Burst strength is a measure of the resistance of cardboard to rupture under pressure. It is usually expressed in pounds per square inch (psi) or kilopascals (kPa) and indicates the maximum load the box can handle before breaking.
Edge Crush Test (ECT): ECT measures the compressive strength of cardboard by determining the amount of force required to crush a short length of the edge of the box. It is commonly expressed in pounds per inch (lb/in) or kilonewtons per meter (kN/m).
Recycling: Cardboard is recyclable, and many cardboard boxes are made from recycled materials. Recycling helps reduce the environmental impact and promotes sustainability.
