VERGENNES, Vt. - Sept. 8, 2015 - PRLog -- Corrugated cardboard boxes are constructed of corrugated fiberboard in order to provide the highest possible strength and durability.  The rigid walls are inflexible and extremely difficult to bend or tear.  This is imperative during the manufacturing and shipping process, as boxes can be mailed in a couple ways: mailed in groups on pallets or mixed loads where they are mailed individually and can receive shocks, kicks, etc. Corrugated cardboard boxes are popular amongst the “greenies” because they are responsible for over half of all recycled products in the country, as they are easy to process into a pulp and then reuse.  In addition to this, corrugated boxes are lightweight as well as cost-effective.  This must be why so many products are shipped in them; Uncle Sam is trying to save a few bucks.

The most widely used function of corrugated cardboard boxes is in the shipping and distribution industry.  More than 95% of all products in the United States are shipped in corrugated boxes.  These boxes need to protect its contents from the manufacturing stage all the way to the distribution and ultimately end-use.  They are most commonly used to ship food and beverages in the food industry.  Corrugated boxes can also be used to store items due to their unique strength that makes them extremely stackable.  Often times the boxes will have listed their ‘load sharing’ ability, which alerts the user how much weight can be applied.
