Benefits of Chipboard for Packaging
Chipboard cardboard is a cost-effective packaging solution for businesses. Demand for cost-effective, reliable, and eco-friendly packaging material is constantly growing. Let us take a quick look at the advantages of this increasingly popular product.
Thanks to the simplicity of the manufacturing process, chipboard cardboard is cheaper to produce than traditional corrugated card. As well as this significant saving in production costs, the thickness of chipboard also means it is cheaper to transport as it takes up less space than corrugated card or other packaging products that contain a considerable proportion of air.
This lack of air also means that, when you are storing the chipboard, it takes up far less space. Also, as it is a solid sheet rather than a corrugated one, there is a much smaller risk of it being damaged or crushed when being stored before use.
Since chipboard is much thinner than corrugated materials, it is far easier to cut and fold to the desired dimensions.
Corrugated card does tend to puncture easily, leaving the contents of the package vulnerable to damage. The density of chipboard cardboard gives it a greater strength and provides a packaging material that is less susceptible to damage. This makes it ideal for use in food packaging and other areas that need a robust, easy to fold carton.
There are few products that are as green as chipboard. Made from recycled paper and cardboard, the energy needed to produce the finished product is far less than other packaging materials.
The advantages of chipboard have seen it become favored throughout the retail and food sectors and this popularity continues to grow. Call us at 813 242 6995 or reach out to sales@quickpakinc.com to see if chipboard is right for you.
