PAPER BOX PRINTING
With the development of the manufacturing industry and the expansion of business activities, the demand for packaging and transportation of goods has increased, accompanied by higher quality standards. Therefore, paper box manufacturing and printing facilities must ensure compliance with current quality standards in terms of production processes and structural integrity. Refer to the following article for detailed information on the characteristics of paper boxes.
❄ What is Paper Box?
➦ A paper box is a product used for containing, preserving, transporting, and displaying industrial and consumer products. Paper boxes are commonly used for products requiring high aesthetic appeal and sophisticated external presentation.
➦ Used paper boxes can be easily recycled into other practical products, and they are highly eco-friendly due to their biodegradable nature within a short period.
➦ Product packaging paper boxes are designed with exterior surfaces featuring product images and corporate branding logos. As such, paper boxes serve as an effective means of brand promotion, reaching a broad consumer audience.
➦ Paper boxes are classified based on material composition, with two primary material types catering to different usage needs and purposes.
❄ Common Paper Types Used for Paper Box Manufacturing:
✚ Rigid Paperboard: Paper boxes made from rigid paperboard do not serve as storage or transport solutions for heavy goods due to their single-layer structure with high grammage.
✚ Corrugated Cardboard: Corrugated paper boxes consist of three, five, or seven layers combined with an outer laminated layer to ensure high-quality printing requirements.
❄ Materials Used in Paper Box Production:
☄ Kraft Paper: Made from softwood pulp without bleaching agents. Kraft paper is categorized into virgin kraft and recycled kraft.
☄ Couche Paper: Compared to kraft paper, couche paper is a more premium material characterized by its high gloss and smoothness, as well as its non-glare properties. Couche paper is commonly used for cosmetic and pharmaceutical packaging.
☄ Duplex Paper: This type of paper features high rigidity and comes in two different shades, with one side being lighter in color than the other. Duplex paper is relatively more cost-effective than the other two types, optimizing final product costs.
❄ Printing Techniques for Paper Boxes:
✧ Embossing and Debossing
✧ Foil Stamping
✧ Glossy and Matte Lamination
✧ UV Coating, Varnish, and Infrared Coating
✧ Creasing and Die-Cutting
