Technical Architecture: The Science Behind Superior Protection
Multi-layer corrugated boards utilize strategic flute combinations that create synergistic protection:
- Structural Engineering Principles
- A-Flute Outer Layer: 36 flutes/ft, 4.8mm thickness – Primary impact absorption
- B-Flute Middle Layer: 50 flutes/ft, 3.2mm thickness – Compression resistance
- C-Flute Inner Layer: 42 flutes/ft, 4.0mm thickness – Cushioning and rigidity
- Material Science Innovations
- High-performance kraft liners with tensile strength of 14-16 kN/m
- Advanced adhesives maintaining bond integrity at -20°F to 140°F
- Moisture-resistant treatments achieving 24-hour water immersion protection
