Materials
Corrugated cardboard is produced by bonding several layers of paper. One or more corrugated paper sheets (waves) are being glued in between two smooth/flat paper sheets (front and back):
- single-flute corrugated board: one corrugated paper in between 2 layers of flat paper
- two-wave (double-wave) corrugated board: 2 layers of corrugated paper
- three-wave corrugated board: 3 layers of corrugated paper
Depending on which paper is being used for production we can define define technical values such as resistance and stackability.
