So What Is Carton Packaging?

In practice, Carton Packaging generally refers to outer packaging of goods using corrugated cardboard boxes. And the most common cartons are 3-ply cardboard (single wall) for middle packaging, 5-ply (double wall) outer packaging for shipping or storage purpose or even 7-ply (triple wall) for large goods like home appliances.

Carton packaging is light weight and cost efficient. Mostly importantly, cartons can well absorb shock and provide sufficient protection against damage for the goods, and they are eco-friendly!
