Boxes are Extraordinary
Protective
Corrugated packaging combines structural rigidity with cushioning qualities to protect heavy or fragile contents from damage.
- Cushions products throughout the supply chain
- Stacking strength helps to stabilize contents
- Using innovative designs, boxes can be right-sized to any product
Before a product makes its way into the hearts and minds of consumers, it has to arrive in perfect condition. Corrugated packaging combines structural rigidity with cushioning qualities to protect contents from damage. One of the reasons it works so well is found in its basic construction, which uses a middle layer of fluting to absorb impact.
These flutes are little engineering marvels and a key to corrugated’s protective qualities. The arches form rigid columns, capable of supporting a great deal of weight while cushioning the container’s contents. The flutes also serve as insulators, providing some product protection from sudden temperature changes.
Combining high-tech engineering and the versatility to custom-design every package for its particular contents and shipping requirements, corrugated’s cushioning quality is matched by its stacking strength, preventing damage in transit.
Made to Fit
Corrugated boxes are designed to meet your specific needs.
Corrugated offers thousands of possible combinations of board types, flute sizes (caliper), basis weight, adhesives, treatment and coatings, including flame retardant and static control protection.
Corrugated is the only rigid shipping container and packaging medium that can be cut and folded into an infinite variety of shapes and sizes and direct-printed with high-resolution color graphics (including lithography, flexography and silk screening). Corrugated is custom-designed to fit specific product protection, shelf space and shipping density requirements (including inner packaging that prevents shifting).
