Q:

What is cardboard packaging?

A:

Cardboard packaging is a commonly used type of packaging that is manufactured from paper-based materials. Prized for its durability, strength, and versatility, cardboard packaging is frequently utilized to package and transport a wide array of goods, including food items, retail products, and electronics. Both businesses and consumers prefer cardboard packaging due to its ability to be easily customized to fit different shapes and sizes, as well as its capacity to be printed on with branding and marketing materials aimed at promoting products and services.


Q:

Can cardboard boxes be printed on?

A:

Yes, it is possible to print on cardboard boxes with your brand logo, product details, or any other information that you would like to share with customers. The incorporation of a custom design can add a premium feel to your packaging, distinguishing it from competitors and potentially boosting sales.


Q:

What types of cardboard stock are used for manufacturing product packaging?

A:

There are various types of cardboard stocks that are used for manufacturing product packaging, including corrugated cardboard, paperboard, chipboard, and recycled cardboard. Each type has its own unique qualities and printing properties. Special attention should be paid when selecting the cardboard material in order to meet any specific packaging requirements.


Q:

What is the main difference between cardboard and corrugated boxes?

A:

While the terms ‘cardboard’ and ‘corrugated’ are often used interchangeably, they are actually two different materials. Cardboard is a thicker and stiffer paper-based material, while corrugated stock is made up of multiple layers of paper with a wavy layer added in between for added strength and durability. Boxes made from corrugated sheets are typically used for shipping and transportation, while cardboard boxes are often used for retail packaging and display.


Q:

Can cardboard packaging be used for heavier items?

A:

It depends on the weight of the item and the thickness of the cardboard. As cardboard boxes are generally not as strong as corrugated boxes, they may not be suitable for very heavy items. However, if the cardboard is thick and sturdy enough, it can be used for moderately heavy items. It is always a good idea to consult and share the packaged item’s weight with one of our consultants to ensure that the desired packaging solution is appropriate for the item being packaged.


Q:

Is cardboard packaging water-resistant?

A:

Cardboard packaging is not inherently water-resistant. However, there are methods to create water-resistant packaging, such as coating or laminating the boxes in order to protect against moisture or minor splashes. It is important to note that coating or lamination does not make cardboard packaging completely waterproof and boxes will be damaged if exposed to water or moisture for an extended period of time or in large amounts. If you need to ship or store items that are sensitive to moisture, it may be best to consider using a different packaging material or seeking advice from our team of packaging experts for an optimal solution.


Q:

Can cardboard packaging be used for food items?

A:

Cardboard packaging can be used for packaging food items, but it is important to ensure that the packaging is food-grade and meets all necessary safety and regulatory requirements. It is also important to consider the specific food items being packaged and whether the packaging will maintain the quality and freshness of the product.


Q:

Can cardboard packaging be recycled?

A:

Yes, most cardboard packaging can be easily recycled. It is always a good idea to eliminate any non-recyclable components by breaking down the cardboard boxes and removing any non-recyclable materials such as packaging tape, plastic handles, and vinyl windows or labels.


Q:

What precautions should be taken in order to securely store excess cardboard packaging?

A:

Proper storage of cardboard packaging is crucial to maintaining its condition and ensuring that the boxes remain usable. We recommend storing cardboard-based packaging in a cool and dry location that is free from any moisture or potential water exposure. Prior to storage, it is also important to ensure that the boxes are clean and dry. Flattening the boxes can help save space, but it is imperative to fold them neatly to avoid damage or unwanted creasing.

Several luxury finishing solutions can be used to enhance the look and feel of custom printed cardboard boxes. Some popular options include:

  • Embossing: This process involves using a metal die to create a raised design on the surface of the box. This can be used to create a tactile, three-dimensional effect that can add a sense of luxury and elegance to the box.
  • Debossing: This process is similar to embossing, but instead of creating a raised design, it creates a recessed design on the surface of the box. This can be used to create a subtle, sophisticated look.

  • Matte/Gloss lamination: Lamination is a process of adding a thin film on the box surface, which protects the surface and creates a nice and smooth finish. Matte or gloss lamination are excellent finishing to create a luxury look and feel.
