Packaging Reinforcement
Some products are heavy, some get handled roughly, some travel long distances. When standard packaging isn’t strong enough, you add reinforcement – extra board at corners, handles, bottoms, or seams.
This adds strength without excessive weight or cost. Corner reinforcement protects edges from impacts. Handle attachment needs to support the weight of full boxes. Bottom reinforcement distributes load and stops boxes collapsing. The glue for these applications needs to be stronger than what you’d use for standard assembly.
These applications need high initial strength since reinforcements often go on just before filling, and the packaging gets stressed immediately during palletisation. Corner boards prevent crushing in stacked loads. Handle reinforcement distributes weight across a larger area. The adhesive bonds corrugated to corrugated or attaches reinforcing materials to existing packaging.
