Shipping boxes
E-commerce and parcel constructions assessed from the product and transport loads.
Shipping and storage
Packing boxes selected for the product and logistics route
Packing boxes are selected by product dimensions, weight, fragility, stacking, storage and transport method. E, B or C single-wall board and EB or BC double-wall combinations have different properties, but suitability depends on the entire construction. Standard products are available in the shop, while custom requirements are prepared as a manufacturing specification.
Logistics solutionThe box is assessed together with the product
- ✓Standard and custom dimensions
- ✓E, B, C, EB and BC flutes
- ✓Solutions for shipping and storage
Solutions
Packing boxes for different tasks
The same board does not suit every shipment, so intended use is assessed first.
Storage boxes
Boxes for recurring storage and stacking where rigidity and clear marking matter.
Product-fitted boxes
Custom dimensions can reduce empty space and retain the product more accurately.
Higher-load containers
Double-wall solutions are assessed from actual loads and construction.
Selection
Common corrugated flutes
Thicknesses are indicative; exact properties depend on the specific board specification.
| Flute | Indicative thickness | Common use |
|---|---|---|
| E | Approx. 1.1–1.9 mm | Smaller and retail packaging |
| B | Approx. 2.7–2.9 mm | Shipping and general-purpose boxes |
| C | Approx. 3.5–3.7 mm | Larger-volume and higher-load boxes |
| EB / BC | Two-flute combination | Higher load and rigidity requirements |
Process
How a packing box is selected
The solution must protect the product throughout the intended logistics route.
- 01
Product
Actual dimensions, weight, shape and fragility are defined.
- 02
Route
Storage, stacking, transport and parcel handling are assessed.
- 03
Construction
Box, board, closure and possible internal elements are selected.
- 04
Specification
Quantity, printing and production terms are agreed.
Safe packing
The box is only one part of the packaging system
Transport protection depends on box construction, product retention, cushioning, closure and the way the shipment is handled.
- ✓Leave room for required protection
- ✓Prevent free product movement
- ✓Select closure according to weight
- ✓Test the package under real conditions
Frequently asked questions
What you should know
These answers help define the requirement and prepare a more accurate quotation.
How should packing box size be selected?
Size is selected around the product and required protective elements while avoiding unnecessary empty space.
How do E, B and C flutes differ?
They differ in indicative thickness and mechanical properties; suitability depends on board composition and box construction.
When is double-wall board considered?
It is considered for higher rigidity or load resistance, but final selection depends on the product and logistics.
Can custom dimensions be ordered?
Yes. Provide internal or external dimensions, product weight, quantity and intended use.
Can standard boxes be purchased online?
Yes. Currently available standard products and variants are shown in the online shop.
