What is the Most Common Single Wall Corrugated Carton Material?

The most common single wall material is 32ECT C flute, this board can be used to create many different box styles, generally being used for smaller and lighter parts. However, if the box is going to be exposed to extreme handling conditions heavier board grades are available in single wall materials without having to step up to a double wall box.  

  • Edge crush test describes the weight capacity the corrugated cardboard can safely withstand during stacking and palletization without deforming. Single wall cartons are available in 23ECT, 29ECT, 32ECT, 40ECT and 42ECT.
  • The flute is the layer in between the cardboard liners. There are various sizes of flutes. Larger flute provides more protection as it has the ability to absorb more shock, short flutes have greater crush resistance. A, B, C and E flutes are the most commonly used flutes in single wall cartons.
