Shift towards Lightweight Corrugated Boxes With growing emphasis on reducing the overall cost weight of packaging as a means to slash transportation costs, producers of corrugated boxes across the world are placing increased emphasis on reducing average weight of the substance, so as to improve yields. In fact, most of the new capacity that has come online during the recent years has focused on the manufacture of lightweight containerboards with of 70-160 gsm, with this trend being particularly pronounced among the newly added Chinese equipment. Most of the lightweight corrugated boards are finding use in Western Europe countries. The weight of finished board across the region has recorded a reduction of 5 gsm on an average between 2009 and 2012. On the other hand, heavyweight boards are finding greater demand in Eastern Europe countries, where the average weight of the boards increased by about 3 gsm during the same period.

One of the key developments in the heavyweight products space has been the development and launch of new offerings such as such as Billerud Flute semi-chemical fluting, which is primarily intended as a substitute for wooden packaging. Such heavyweight boards are also capable of being used as replacements for double-walled board with lightweight single wall substitute. By using corrugated board as a replacement for wooden packaging, producers can achieve significant weight reduction, which in turn translates into better logistics as well as improved cushioning for sensitive heavy products. Furthermore, such material provide for greater availability of printable outer surface. Heavy duty corrugated packaging is of particular significance for automotive and chemical industries, where the demand is rising for lightweight packaging with green image. More
