Corrugated Boxes vs. Chipboard Boxes
Corrugated boxes use fluted material between linerboards for added strength, cushioning and stacking durability, making them the better choice for shipping. Chipboard boxes are thinner, lighter paperboard cartons often used for small consumer goods, gift boxes, jewelry boxes, apparel packaging and other lightweight retail applications.

Single-wall boxes work for lighter shipments, double-wall boxes add strength for heavier products and triple-wall boxes support heavy-duty shipping, freight consolidation and industrial packaging.
