What we like about Royal Paper Box: Custom printing and FSC certified stocks available.


Corrugated Boxes

  • Corrugated boxes and inserts are made from corrugated board which has three kraft paper layers to make a rigid board — two liners and a corrugated layer in between.

    Corrugated thicknesses are called flutes. Depending on the liner thicknesses, larger flutes (A) can make a board appear more wavy and smaller flutes (E-G) can make a board appear more smooth.

    Most graphics are printed direct on the kraft paper. The ink soaks into the paper, so the corrugated maintains its matte, textured feel. There are coatings and coated substrates available to make boxes look shiny and feel more slick, in addition to making the inks appear more vibrant.

  • These paper boxes are made from trees, which are a renewable resource. In the first leg of shipping to a distributor, boxes ship flat, taking up less space in transit. After it’s built and filled, the box will have a set volume in shipping.

    Corrugated board is made from paper which is easily recycled or composted (see Disposal).

    Royal sources paper that has an FSC certification. The paper and forest industry created FSC certifications to set standards like stricter restrictions on clear cuts and pesticide use.

    They also claim to use low-VOC UV and vegetable-based inks and recyclable water base coatings.

  • The best afterlife for most paper products — from collateral to boxes — is recycling. Most paper fibers can be recycled more than five times. Paper with tape or stickers can still be recycled, because non-paper materials are sifted out in the recycling process.

  • Typically, you can print on the entirety of a box, from edge to edge. Printed designs will match the finish of the paper.

    For a shiny finish, you’ll need to inquire about added coatings. Coatings may also be necessary if your packaging needs extra water resistance.


Folding Cartons

  • Folding cartons are made from a sturdy, yet foldable board. Because it’s still relatively flexible, there are several printing options for a glossy or matte finish.

  • These paperboard boxes made from trees, which are a renewable resource. Paper is lightweight in shipping and these folding cartons can be engineered for structural stability with flat pack shipping. Paper is also easily recycled or composted (see Disposal).

    For more transparent sourcing, suppliers may source paper that has an FSC certification. The paper and forest industry created FSC certifications to set standards like stricter restrictions on clear cuts and pesticide use.
