Question 1

What is the corrugated board? What board will be used for my mailer box?

Accepted Answer

The Corrugated board typically comprises three parts/layers: the fluted(grooved) sheet as its medium layer, on the medium layer, both sides glued with different grade liner board as its first and third layer. The linerboards of both sides will vary based on the box's different uses and the clients' demands. The kraft liner usually provides better protection during transit, and the white liner board is generally used for printing exquisite artwork. The grammage of the linerboard typically comes with 120gsm,140gsm, 170gsm, 200gsm, 230gsm, 250gsm, 300gsm. By default, the mailer box of cefBox is applied with the material of 300gsm, providing extra protection.

Based on the sizes of the applied fluted(corrugated) sheets, grooved boards are designated as "A," "B," "C," "E," and "F" or micro flute. CefBox typically uses an E-flute or F-flute for custom printing mailer boxes. An e-flute with 90+/-4 flutes per foot and a 1.8 mm final thickness produces the mailer box with a single side fully printed by default in cefBox. F-flute, 125+/-4 flutes per foot, and a 1.6mm final thickness are used for the mailer box of double sides, which is fully printed by default.
