Package Boxes Printing and There Types
Several types of boxes are used in packaging and storage:-
A print packaging box (sometimes called cardboard box) is a shipping container made of corrugated fiberboard rather than solid paperboard. These are most commonly used to transport and warehouse products during distribution.
A folding carton (sometimes called a box) is fabricated from paperboard. The paperboard is printed (if necessary), die-cut and scored to form a blank. These are transported and stored flat, and erected at the point of filling. These are used to package a wide range of consumer goods and other different commercial goods.
A “set up” box (or rigid paperboard box) is made of a non-bending grade of paperboard. Unlike folding cartons, these are assembled at the point of manufacture and transported already “set-up”. Set-up boxes are more expensive than folding boxes and are typically used for high value items such as cosmetics and gift boxes.
A wooden box is related to a wooden crate, which is very obvious. A Gaylord is a large box often used in industrial environments. It is sized to fit well on a pallet. Depending on locale and specific usage, the terms print packaging boxes are sometimes used interchangeably and can be distinguished easily.
