Flute type and Board Grade Customisation


We are able to customise a combination of flute type and board grade to suit your individual application. The flute is the height of the corrugation sandwiched between two liners. The common flute used in slotted containers is "C". It is approximately 4mm thick and has excellent stacking strength. Another common flute type is "B". It is mainly used in diecut applications and has good burst strength properties. It is approximately 3mm thick. When we combine both "C" and "B" Flute together we form a product call twin cushion, otherwise known as double wall. This is generally about 9mm in thickness. Other flute types are A, E, F Flutes. These are not used as readily and have highly specialised applications. All material manufactured can be produced in both a white or brown material.

Please speak to one of our sales people if you are uncertain of material required.
