Project Report On Corrugated Boxes (Automatic Plant)
INTRODUCTION
The materials now available for packaging are paper and paper products, metal
containers and foils, glass, plastics-rigid and flexible, cellulosic films, textiles
including jute, woven plastics and wood. Among the packaging materials, paper and
paper based products continue to occupy a predominant place. Paper based
materials used for packaging include bleached and unbleached kraft, corrugated
and solid fiber boards and a large variety of converted items like wax coated, plastic
coated, bitumen coated etc. Corrugated and solid fibre board boxes have replaced
the conventional wooden boxes as transport containers because of their light weight
and satisfactory strength. There are, however, several areas in which this sector is
laggin behind the developed countries; they include mainly production of
parchment paper for use in packaging of biscuits etc. Sack Kraft paper and high
strength Kraft for producing corrugated fibre board of good strength characteristics.
Paper makers in the country are becoming conscious of the needs of container
industry and are working to improve the existing qualities. In India textile, tea,
tobacco and coffee are probably the largest consumers of papers. Out of the total
paper production about 35 per cent goes to the packaging industry. With the
advancement of industry, the production of paper and paper board is bound to
increase, and the major increase will be in the field of packaging papers and boards.
Paper is intact replacing the older materials used for packaging. In addition, paper
in packaging is economical; light easy to handle and superior. Corrugated boxes
and solid fibre containers are extensively being used in place of wooden boxes.

The lower cost, light weight and superiority over other packaging have been the key
to the remarkable growth of fiber boxes. The advantages of corrugated boxes to
other packaging materials may be summed as under.
1. Light weight.
2 Low cost.
3. Easy setting up and letting.
4. Small storage space required.
5. Cushioning properties.
6. Easy handling.
7. Adaptability to interior packing.
8. Attractive printing.
9. Wide source of supply.
A corrugating box is made from corrugating fibre board which is a structure formed
by glueing a liner board to one or both faces of a corrugated member.
