1. What is a cardboard box?

 

A cardboard box is a product made from rigid corrugated cardboard, which is widely used in the packaging industry today. A cardboard box consists of 2 parts: the outer part (2 layers of paper) and the inner part (paper core). Depending on each person's purpose of use, many different types of cardboard boxes have been created: 3-layer cardboard box, 5-layer cardboard box, 7-layer cardboard box…

  1. How many types of cardboard boxes are there? Characteristics of each type

    1.  Classification of cardboard boxes based on structure

Cardboard boxes are divided into many different types. However, based on their application, they can be divided into 3 popular types: 

3-layer cardboard box: It is a very popular type of cardboard box, accounting for 90% of the cardboard boxes used on the market today. The box consists of 3 layers of corrugated paper: 2 outer layers of corrugated paper and 1 middle layer of sinusoidal fluted paper.

Advantages:

  • Low cost because it does not require much paper to produce
  • Lightweight, making transportation, cutting, and bending easier
  • Designs are usually diverse and plentiful, making them easy to choose
  • Compact and easy to fold flat when needed

Disadvantages: 

  • Not very durable
  • The quality of the box gradually decreases over time
  • Lower load-bearing strength than 5-layer and 7-layer boxes

5-layer cardboard box

It is a high-quality corrugated cardboard box: 2 outer layers of corrugated paper alternating with 2 layers of sinusoidal fluted paper and 1 layer of corrugated paper in the middle of the 2 fluted layers.

Advantages:

  • Can protect heavy goods, suitable for manufacturers, transporters, and importers and exporters
  • Good load-bearing capacity, high compression strength and durability, ensuring safety during long-distance packaging and transportation
  • Easy to recycle and environmentally friendly

Disadvantages:

  • Because it is made of corrugated paper, it absorbs water easily and will deteriorate over time
  • Although it has 5 layers, its load-bearing capacity is relatively weak, and it can easily dent or be damaged when bumped during transportation

7-layer cardboard box: A 7-layer cardboard box consists of 7 layers of corrugated paper, including 2 outer layers, 2 inner layers, and 3 layers of sinusoidal fluted paper

Advantages:

  • Compact design, flexible to use
  • Not too heavy, easy to cut and bend as desired
  • Good compression strength and mechanical impact resistance
  • Diverse designs, styles, colors, and printing
  • Easy to repair and change the original shape

Disadvantages:

  • The price of a 7-layer cardboard box is quite high compared to other types of cardboard boxes
  • More difficult to transport than 3- and 5-layer boxes due to its larger size and weight

  1.  Classification of cardboard boxes based on lid type

Top-and-bottom cardboard box

Top-and-bottom cardboard box is also known as a cardboard box with a separate lid. It is loved by consumers for its convenience and quality. It is popular for containing premium products.

Die-cut cardboard box

The box is designed very intelligently with a handle on top and a fold-open design, providing convenience for users. It is often used to package highly aesthetic products such as gifts, cosmetics, and snacks.

Tray-top cardboard box

The box has 4 closed sides and 1 flat bottom, with no top cover on the surface, but a lid that opens from one of the 4 sides of the box. The box is often used to contain components and materials.
