Cardboard packaging tolerances and norms

Cardboard packaging tolerances and norms

Cardboard packaging tolerances and norms

(OP)
Hi all

I'd like to know if there is anything mentioned in an standard or norm about the admissible dimensions of the cardboard box to avoid damages to the product during transportation?

RE: Cardboard packaging tolerances and norms

There are standards (not free) from the Fiber Box Association and Packaging Machinery Manufacturers Institute. Much of the tolerances depend on the type of cardboard; flute size, single wall, double wall, etc, etc. E or F flute is going to have a smaller, achievable manufacturing tolerance than B or A flute.
