What are the benefits of Transpack's Double Walled Cardboard Boxes?

Transpack's quality, strong Double Wall boxes, also known as corrugated cardboard boxes, offer several benefits compared to single-wall boxes. Here are some advantages of using double wall boxes:

  1. Enhanced Strength and Durability: Double wall boxes are constructed with two layers of corrugated board, making them significantly stronger and more resistant to impact and compression. This added strength allows them to withstand heavy loads and provides better protection for the contents inside. They are less likely to collapse or get damaged during shipping or handling, reducing the risk of product loss or breakage.
  2. Improved Stacking Ability: The extra layer of corrugated board in double wall boxes enhances their stacking strength. This is particularly important for palletised shipments or when multiple boxes need to be stacked together. The increased stability reduces the chances of boxes toppling over, preventing potential accidents and damage.
  3. Increased Protection: Double wall boxes provide better insulation and cushioning, which helps protect the contents from external factors such as moisture, temperature fluctuations, and vibrations during transportation. This is especially crucial for fragile or delicate items that require additional protection to ensure they arrive in pristine condition.
  4. Versatility: Double wall boxes are available in various sizes and configurations, making them suitable for a wide range of products. They can accommodate different shapes, weights, and dimensions, offering flexibility in packaging options. Whether you're shipping electronics, glassware, or heavy equipment, double wall boxes can be tailored to meet your specific needs.
  5. Cost-Effective: While double wall boxes may be slightly more expensive than single-wall boxes, they offer significant cost savings in the long run. Their enhanced durability and protective qualities reduce the likelihood of product damage, which can result in costly returns, replacements, or refunds. Moreover, the ability to stack them efficiently maximizes space utilization, leading to potential savings in shipping and storage costs.
  6. Eco-Friendly: Double wall boxes are typically made from sustainably resourced recyclable materials, such as corrugated cardboard. They are biodegradable and can be easily recycled, contributing to environmental sustainability. By choosing double wall boxes, you can align your packaging practices with eco-conscious initiatives and reduce your carbon footprint.

 

 

 

Corrugated cardboard is collected by the vast majority, if not all, of Local Authorities in household recycling collections, but can also be taken to local recycling centres. If you wish to home compost your cardboard boxes, simply tear them into strips, soak them with water and dig them into your compost heap. If you have a home composter you can also compost it. It works best if you shred it first or tear it into smaller pieces as it will decompose more quickly.

Are Cardboard Boxes good for home composting?

Cardboard is considered beneficial for compost heaps due to the following reasons:

  1. Carbon-rich material: Cardboard is primarily composed of carbon, which is an essential component for a balanced compost pile. Composting requires a mix of carbon-rich (also known as "browns") and nitrogen-rich (also known as "greens") materials. Cardboard, being a high-carbon material, provides a source of energy for the microorganisms that break down organic matter in the compost pile.
  2. Aeration and moisture retention: Cardboard has a fibrous structure that helps create air pockets within the compost pile. These air pockets allow for better aeration, facilitating the movement of oxygen throughout the pile. Adequate oxygen supply is crucial for the decomposition process and helps prevent anaerobic conditions that can lead to unpleasant odours. Additionally, cardboard has the ability to retain moisture, preventing the compost from drying out too quickly.
  3. Biodegradability: Cardboard is made from natural plant fibres, typically derived from wood pulp. These fibres are biodegradable, meaning they can break down naturally over time. When added to the compost pile, cardboard will decompose along with other organic materials, contributing to the overall breakdown and transformation of the compost.
  4. Weed suppression: When used as a layer or in shredded form, cardboard can act as a weed barrier in the compost pile. It can help smother existing weeds and prevents weed seeds from germinating by blocking sunlight. This can be particularly useful if you're composting garden waste or incorporating weeds into the pile.

However, it's important to note that not all cardboard is suitable for composting. Avoid using cardboard that is coated or treated with glossy, waxed, or plastic coatings, as these materials may contain chemicals that can hinder the composting process or introduce harmful substances into the compost. Stick to plain, uncoated cardboard like brown pizza boxes, egg trays and corrugated cardboard boxes for composting purposes.

How are cardboard boxes measured?

Standard cardboard cartons of the kind we supply are always measured internally.

Measurements are: length X width X height.The longest dimension of the flaps runs along the Length. They meet across the Width.

What is a cardboard box made of?

Boxes can be made from solid fibreboard (greyboard, chipboard or even strawboard) or from corrugated board where a fluted paper material is trapped between 2 layers to create a board of greater strength. All the cardboard boxes we supply are of the latter style, often referred to as corrugated cases or cartons.

What is meant by "single wall" or "double wall" boxes, and which is stronger?

Put simply, single wall is one layer of fluted material between two boards while double wall is two layers. This makes double wall cardboard boxes much stronger, in fact it is more than twice as strong, and if you are moving house this is the box we would recommend.

Are there different strengths of the cardboard?

Yes. While most boxes are based upon a standard board they can be made from heavier material to special order.

Can I get White cardboard boxes for my products?

Yes. For boxes there are 2 kinds of White. The most common is a mottled White (like our White boxes). It has an excellent appearance but is not an all over pure White. If this is not White enough there is a High White available on special order.

Do I have to order more to get White boxes?

Yes. The minimum quantites for White boxes are much higher than those for the normal brown ones. For mottled White this might be 5 times as many. For High White it could be 20 times. The exception is our range of self-locking postal boxes which are (nearly all) Mottled White.

Do I need "single wall" or "double wall" boxes?

You will need to consider many factors in arriving at your conclusion, such as weight to be carried, method of transit, height of stacking and "integrity" of contents. In general terms single wall cartons are deemed to be adequate only up to about 5kg weight of contents. However, if the contents are very robust and a tight fit in the box a greater weight may be possible. If you are despatching this weight by parcels carrier however, a double wall box is likely to cope with the multiple handling much better.

How do I pack my boxes to minimise damage?

The first rule is - tight! No matter what the content is it must NOT be allowed to move about in the box, even if the box is dropped. There is a wide variety of cushioning and filling material available for fragile items or mixed consignments and you may have to experiment to arrive at the right solution for your business. We will always do our best to help in individual cases. Can boxes be made to my special sizes? And what is the minimum amount?

Standard boxes can be made to any size within reason. The minimum quantity for any normal use is 50, though exceptions have been made. You should be aware, however, that the price for 50 can often be 3 times the price (each) for 200 or 300.

Non-standard boxes, such as special shapes or "die-cuts" are normally subject to much higher minimums. For example, if you wanted a made to measure self-locking postal box the minimum would be at least 1,000 and there would also be an extra charge for the cutting tool.

Can cardboard boxes be printed?

Yes, this is no problem. Most of the box making machines have rotary print facilities built in. There will be minimum runs of perhaps 500 or more, and plate-making is also an extra cost. Multiple colours do become very costly as they involve multiple runs and colour changes. It should also be noted that the print method is "flexography" which cannot cope with half tones or close registration.

Can I get boxes that will go through a letter-box?

Yes, some of our self locking postal boxes will go through a standard letterbox; three of these sizes have been designed specifically to fit through Royal Mail’s "Large Letter" Slot, too. Additonally, our PIP boxes (pricing in proportion) are also available to help keep your postage costs down and fit through Royal Mails ‘Large Letter’ slot.
