- Corrugated is a durable, versatile, economical and lightweight material making it ideal for custom-made shipping boxes, point of sale displays and a number of other applications.
- Corrugated is strong with a high strength-to-weight ratio.
- The structural rigidity of corrugated endows it with protective, cushioning qualities.
- Corrugated packaging has superior tear, tensile and burst strength enabling it to withstand the pressures of shipping.
- Corrugated cardboard has the highest recycling rate of any form of packaging in the world with 84% of all corrugated packaging being recycling in the UK. This equates to approximately 2 million tonnes of waste saved from landfill per year.
- Corrugated boxes are made from 75% recycled material and the recycling loop can be completed in as little as 2 weeks.
- Through better design and advances in technology, corrugated packaging companies now use 20% lighter material than a decade ago, with no effect on structural properties.
- Virtually any design can be printed on to corrugated to protect and market consumer products.
- Corrugated is the only rigid packaging medium that can be cut and folded into an almost infinite range of shapes and sizes.
- Approximately 5 billion corrugated boxes are used in the UK per year, equating to 83 per person.
