Understanding Folding Carton Boxes: The Ultimate Guide

Folding carton boxes are a staple in the packaging world, offering versatility, durability, and a canvas for creative branding.

Whether you're a seasoned business owner or just starting out, understanding the ins and outs of folding cartons can help elevate your product's presentation and protect it during transit.

What Are Folding Carton Boxes?

Folding carton boxes are paper-based containers commonly used for packaging a wide range of products—from cosmetics and pharmaceuticals to food items and consumer electronics.

They are known for their lightweight nature and ability to be customized in various shapes and sizes.

Materials Used in Folding Carton Boxes

Choosing the right material is crucial for the functionality and aesthetics of your packaging. Here are some common materials:

1. SBS Paperboard

  • Composition: Made from cellulose fibers, thicker than standard paper.
  • Properties: Durable, foldable without cracking, excellent for high-quality printing.
  • Applications: Ideal for lightweight products like cosmetics, cereals, and pharmaceuticals.

2. Corrugated Cardboard

  • Composition: Comprises two flat linerboards with a fluted medium layer in between.
  • Properties: High strength-to-weight ratio, excellent cushioning, and crush resistance.
  • Applications: Perfect for heavier or fragile items needing extra protection.

3. Sugarcane Board

  • Composition: Derived from bagasse, the fibrous residue of sugarcane.
  • Properties: Grease and moisture-resistant, eco-friendly.
  • Applications: Great for food packaging and environmentally conscious brands.

Did you know? WITPAX sources top-notch materials, including recycling options, to ensure your packaging not only looks good but also aligns with your brand’s values.

Choosing the Right Thickness and Strength

The thickness and strength of your folding cartons depend on the product’s weight and the level of protection required.

Factors to Consider:

  • Weight of Contents: Heavier products need thicker materials.
  • Material Type: Different materials offer varying strength levels.
  • Box Design: Structural elements can enhance strength.

General Guidelines:

Product Weight Recommended Thickness
Up to 200g 300–450 microns
200g to 500g 450–700 microns
Over 900g 900–1000 microns

At WITPAX, we help you select the perfect material and thickness to ensure your products are safe and your brand shines.

1.Varnishing

  • Types: Gloss, matte, satin.
  • Benefits: Enhances appearance, provides scratch resistance.

2. Lamination
