Description
Single-wall corrugated cardboard is a type of packaging material commonly used for shipping boxes, product packaging, and other applications where lightweight but sturdy material is needed. It consists of three layers: an inside liner, an outside liner, and a fluted or corrugated medium sandwiched between them.
Here’s a breakdown of its components:
- Liners: These are the flat outer layers of the cardboard. They provide the structural integrity and surface for printing or labeling. Liners are typically made from kraft paper, which is a type of paper produced from wood pulp. The liners contribute to the overall strength of the cardboard.
- Fluting: This is the wavy or ridged layer of paper that runs between the liners. It provides cushioning and support to the cardboard, helping to absorb shocks and impacts during handling and shipping. The fluting is what gives corrugated cardboard its strength and rigidity while keeping it lightweight.
