General Informations
Cardboard as packaging material
Cardboard is more than jsut sturdy paper: It is a cost-effective and sustainable packaging for every area of application.
Buying Cartons made easy
Tips and tricks on selecting the optimal box and buying the most popular packaging material.
The FEFCO Standard
How do you fold cardboard boxes, and - seriously, why do you fold them at all? The Fefco standard will solve this mystery!
Classic Cardboard Boxes
Maxi Letter Boxes
Shipping small goods is usually quick and painless. The maxi letter box is the perfect solution: It offers the maximum letter size so that the packaging still fits into a regular letterbox without any problems.
Large Letter Carton
Not only suitable for documents: This A4+ sized cardboard box still counts as a letter.
Single Wall Cardboard Boxes
Your products don't fit into an envelope? Shipping boxes made of single wall, corrugated cardboard are perfect for light and medium weight products!
Automatic Boxes
If time is money: These cardboard boxes are ready-to-ship in an instant and without hassle!
Retention Boxes
Single Part Retention Packaging
Protect sensitive goods through fixation: No more transport damages caused by loose parts!
Two Parts Retention Packaging
Even more security, even with larger products: The fixing frame holds the goods firmly and the separate shipping box ensures damage-free shipping.
Membrane Packaging
Maximum protection against shocks, vibrations and falls: Membrane boxes are ideal for fragile products or sensitive electronics!
Nub Foam Box
Not every product fits into the narrow frame of a membrane packaging. If the product is bigger than usual, the thickly padded dimpled foam box does the job.
Special Shipping Boxes
Shipping Tubes
Ever tried to send a poster or a technical drawing in a normal cardboard box - without creasing it? Then just roll them up.
Pallet Cartons
Transporting loose goods and products in large quantities on Euro-Pallets? No problem with a fitting pallet box.
Moving Boxes
Strong and clever: Moving boxes not only help with transport, but also with organisation.
Dangerous Goods Boxes
Ship hazardous goods safely: A shipping box made for corrosive, toxic and flammable products!
Shipping Bags
Bubble Mailers
Sending small products such as jewellery or CDs in a normal envelope is not a good idea. Unless the envelope is made of particularly robust paper and lined with protective bubble wrap.
Film Mailers
LDPE shipping bags for online and textile shops: Tear-proof, water-resistant and opaque!
