Why corrugated cardboard is popular now

Once widely used in the advertising and packaging industries but regarded as cheap and commonplace, corrugated cardboard is now being used in a variety of exhibition settings in a more diversified and personalized form with new technology, showing great potential and value.

Background

The invention and application of corrugated cardboard has a history of more than a hundred years. It is a kind of board made of hanging cardboard and corrugated cardboard bonded by corrugated rolls processed to form the wave shape of corrugated cardboard, and is usually divided into two categories: single-watt and double-watt. It has the advantages of low cost, light weight, easy processing, strong strength, good printing adaptability, convenient storage and transportation, and easy recycling, and so on.

UV printing technology to help

Originally, it was only a mediocre application material in the advertising and packaging industry. Now, with the mature application of UV printing technology, corrugated cardboard has successfully made a comeback, breaking the circle and becoming the new favorite of many industries.

At the same time, with the rapid curing and high-resolution characteristics of UV printing technology, the surface of corrugated cardboard can be transformed into attractive boxes, displays and decorative items with rich colors and fine patterns without additional coating or processing steps. This not only improves production efficiency and reduces costs, but also effectively ensures that the printing effect is long-lasting and abrasion-resistant.

New technology gives corrugated board better performance

At the same time, the new corrugated board also solves the original problem of insufficient resistance to bending and load bearing, and develops characteristics such as resistance to moisture, ease of spraying, and ease of recycling, making it an environmentally friendly material that is lightweight, low-cost, and easy to process.

With so much functionality and sustainability, corrugated is quickly becoming an ideal choice for design and manufacturing. From packaging to furniture, from exhibition displays to space beautification, corrugated cardboard is now used almost everywhere.

In short, as science and technology evolve further, the map of applications for corrugated cardboard will grow even wider. Topwon’s star product, the POP display shelf, is made of corrugated cardboard and is favored internationally.
