Corrugated Shipping Boxes vs. Cardboard Boxes
When should you use corrugated shipping boxes over regular cardboard? The biggest consideration is size and weight. Corrugated cardboard can hold hefty packages better than cardboard, even if a liner is used. The cardstock for product boxes is close to the thickness of a credit card, whereas corrugated cardboard is much thicker and is made up of three layers.
If you’re transporting heavy or large items, such as appliances and electronics, it’s better to go for a corrugated cardboard box. If you need a box for small and light items, such as pens, perfumes, or other cosmetic items, a cardboard box is best.
How to Use Corrugated Shipping Boxes
Because of its lightness and strength, corrugated cardboard boxes offer a lot of utility. For businesses, these can be used to transport inventory from the warehouse to retail stores. You can also use branded shipping boxes as tertiary packaging, protecting the boxed product while it’s on its way to customers. Since these are lightweight, you don't have to worry about exorbitant shipping fees, too.
