Corrugated Flutes

Corrugated cardboard has different styles of flutes depending on what use you require them for. A flute is the type of corrugation that sits in between the outer layers of cardboard.

• "C" Flute
• Thickness from 4 to 5 mm
• 41 Flutes per foot

"C" Flute Cardboard has a resistance to being crushed and is very strong when stacked. Most commonly used flute for shipping boxes and performs best when holding materials such as glass, furniture and food products.

• "B" Flute
• Thickness 3mm
• 49 Flutes per foot

"B" Flute Cardboard is the perfect combination for strength. It has a higher resistance to punctures than the other flutes and generally used for stand up displays or ballot boxes.

• "E" Flute
• Thickness 1.5mm
• 95 Flutes per foot

"E" Flute Cardboard is the most lightweight type of corrugated cardboard we produce. It is a stronger alternative to paperboard and performs well when used for die cut designs as it has a superior printing surface.
