Slotted & Standard Boxes

Corrugated Board Built for the Weight You Ship

Most slotted boxes use single wall corrugated board, and heavier loads move up to double-wall. The edge crush test rating shows how much stacking pressure the board can take. As a rough guide, 32 ECT suits loads up to about 65 lb, and 44 ECT suits loads up to about 95 lb. Your box weight sets the ECT rating and calliper on the quote, and the board spec is confirmed before the run is cut.E flute is about 1/16 in thick, B flute about 1/8 in, and C flute about 5/32 in, and C is the usual choice for corrugated mailer boxes. Double wall corrugated suits heavy loads, as in our heavy-duty shipping containers. Most of our board has recycled corrugated content, with a kraft or white liner on any grade. We ask for your packed weight up front, so the grade we quote matches the load. Share your box weight with us, and we will confirm the flute and ECT rating.

Printing and Finishing Options That Make Your Boxes Stand Out

You can leave a slotted box in plain kraft or print your logo in one or two colors. Flexo printing keeps the cost per box low on larger runs. Digital printing suits short runs and detailed artwork. Litho-laminated board gives the sharpest color for boxes that sit on a shelf. You can print the inside of the box too. Our custom printed corrugated boxes use water-based inks, and an aqueous coating helps the print resist scuffs in transit. Logos are placed on the dieline first, clear of the scores and slots, and approved before printing starts. Our supplies a finished dieline with every print job. Your artwork is set on it by us, ready for your sign-off.
