Custom corrugated boxes protect your products in transit and still look like your brand at the door. Choose the flute, wall strength and print, starting from 100 boxes.
The flute is the wave-shaped layer inside the board. Taller flutes cushion and stack better. Smaller flutes are thinner and give a smoother surface for printing. For background on the material, see this overview of corrugated fiberboard.
| Flute | Thickness | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| F flute | About 0.8 mm (1/32 in) | Small, light retail boxes that need a premium printed look |
| E flute | About 1.6 mm (1/16 in) | Printed mailer boxes, subscription boxes, cosmetics and apparel |
| B flute | About 3.2 mm (1/8 in) | Everyday parcel shipping, food and display packaging |
| C flute | About 4 mm (5/32 in) | General shipping cartons with more cushioning |
| A flute | About 4.8 mm (3/16 in) | Fragile items that need maximum cushioning |
Need more strength? Flutes combine into double wall board (such as BC flute) for heavy or high-value shipments.
Flute type is only half the story. Corrugated strength is rated by the Edge Crush Test (ECT), which measures how much stacking pressure the board can take before it buckles.
Single wall board at 32 ECT covers most e-commerce and parcel shipping. 44 ECT or double wall board is the safer pick for heavier loads, pallet stacking or fragile goods.
For photo-quality graphics, the design is printed on a smooth liner and laminated to the board, so even a sturdy shipping box can carry full-color branding. Prefer a lighter retail carton? See our cardboard boxes.
From printed corrugated boxes for subscription brands to simple custom shipping boxes with a one-color mark, we quote corrugated boxes with logo printing from 100 units.

E flute is the most popular choice for printed mailer boxes. It is thin enough to fold neatly and print sharply, yet strong enough for courier delivery. Move up to B flute for heavier contents.
ECT stands for Edge Crush Test. It rates how much pressure the board's edge can take before crushing, which predicts stacking strength. 32 ECT suits most parcel shipping and 44 ECT suits heavier loads.
Single wall handles most e-commerce and retail shipping. Double wall adds a second fluted layer for heavy, fragile or high-value products and for boxes that will be stacked on pallets.
Yes. We print full color, spot colors and inside panels. For the most detailed artwork, the design is printed on a smooth liner that is laminated to the corrugated board.
Yes. Corrugated board is made with recycled content and is widely recyclable. An aqueous coating keeps it that way better than a plastic lamination.
