Corrugated Boxes

Corrugated boxes are strong, lightweight packaging boxes made from a fluted (wavy) layer of paper sandwiched between two flat liner sheets. This structure gives them extra cushioning, making corrugated packaging ideal for shipping, storage, and protecting products from bumps and pressure.

Regular cardboard (often just paperboard) is typically a single layer and best for lighter, retail-style packaging. Corrugated boxes have a fluted inner layer between liners, which adds strength and impact resistance. That’s why corrugated shipping boxes are the go-to choice for heavier, bulkier, or more fragile items.

Custom corrugated boxes are corrugated packaging boxes made to your exact size, style, and branding needs. Instead of forcing your product into a standard-size carton, you get custom size corrugated boxes designed around your product dimensions, weight, and shipping method—with your logo, colors, and messaging printed right on the box.

Custom corrugated boxes help you:

• Reduce empty space and packing material
• Improve protection for your specific product shape and weight
• Present a professional, branded look from the moment the box arrives
• Cut down on damage-related returns and replacements

They combine practicality, protection, and branding in one solution.
