Strength
Cartonboard is both a strong and lightweight material. This helps to make cartons effective in the supply chain - protecting the product from the point of production through to the point of use. This ensures that the product reaches the consumer in perfect condition and reduces unnecessary and costly wastage.
The strength characteristics also help the consumer. Products can be carried home without difficulty, stored simply and used easily. Sophisticated opening and closing devices help the consumer to open and reclose cartons easily so making them more user friendly than other forms of packaging.
