Cardboard is a family, not one material
People say cardboard and mean two different things. Folding carton board (also called paperboard) is a single thick sheet, the stuff a cereal box or a perfume box is made of. Corrugated board has a wavy layer called the flute glued between two flat liners, which makes it far stronger for its weight. That is what shipping boxes are made of.
Which one you need depends on the job. A product that sits on a shelf needs crisp print and a clean shape. A product that travels through a courier network needs crush strength. Plenty of brands use both: a printed carton inside a plain corrugated shipper. We make both, so you only deal with one supplier and one invoice.
How we keep the price down
We quote factory direct, so there is no distributor stacking a margin on top of the factory's margin. We also look for savings you might not know to ask about: a board grade that is strong enough without being overbuilt, a box size that nests better on a pallet, or a print method that skips plate fees on short runs.
Cheap boxes are easy to find. Cheap boxes that arrive on time, match your proof and hold up in transit are rarer. That is the whole point of this company.
What we need to quote you
Send us the inside dimensions (length, width, depth), roughly how many you need and whether you want printing. A photo of the product or the box you use now helps a lot. If you do not know the size yet, tell us what goes inside and we will work it out with you.
