Edgeboard consists of several laminated layers of strong paperboard.
High quality reusable carton board is glued together under high pressure to produce a highly, stable, profile element. For improved quality, lamination through heat sealing is applied. This means that the packaging solution can withstand major moisture fluctuations and dampness.
Benefits include:
- Low cost product
- Low weight and completely recyclable
- Good resistance to pressure and shocks
- Easy to assemble
- Improved product visibility
- Printing is possible.
Edgeboards can be used for many applications in several different ways.
- Outer edge protection by simply keeping the boards in place with straps, shrink film or stretch wrap - used to protect the edges from damage. This is also a good way to protect the packaging from damage caused by the straps.
- A box can be strengthed using inner edgeboards - used for electronics and fragile components where improved stacking capability or edge protection is needed.
- Pallets or products can be made stackable through use of vertical edgeboards and a frame frequently used in the agriculture industry for fruit and vegetables.
