Overview of corrugated boxes:
Corrugated boxes consist of three layers of paper: an inside liner, an outside liner, and fluting that runs between the two liners.The fluting provides added strength and durability to the box, making it ideal for shipping and storing products. The packaging industry commonly uses corrugated boxes because of their durability, versatility, and eco-friendliness. Tailoring to various product sizes and shapes and printing with branding or other graphics can enhance the product’s appearance. Businesses looking to reduce their environmental impact can opt for corrugated boxes because they are made from recycled materials and are themselves recyclable, making them a sustainable choice. Overall, corrugated boxes are a popular and reliable packaging solution that offer a range of benefits. The flutes offer cushioning and support to the items inside the box, reducing the likelihood of damage during shipping or handling.
Different type of flutes for corrugated boxes?
Corrugated boxes can use several types of flutes, each with its own unique features and advantages. The most common types of flutes are A, B, C, E, and F.

Different types of corrugated stock?
When selecting corrugated boxes, it’s crucial to consider the type of stock used. There are two main types of corrugated stock: Kraft and white. Kraft corrugated stock is made from unbleached Kraft paper. Kraft corrugated stock is brown in color, which gives it a natural and Eco-friendly look. Additionally, Kraft corrugated stock is resistant to tearing, crushing, and puncturing, making it ideal for heavy or bulky items. White corrugated stock is made from bleached Kraft paper. This gives it a bright white appearance, which can be attractive for certain types of products. White corrugated stock is also ideal for printing graphics or branding, as the bright white surface provides a clean and clear canvas. Overall, both Kraft and white corrugated stock offer a range of benefits and can be customized to fit a variety of product needs. learn more about the strength of each type of stock here
