Rigid Box

Rigid Box

A rigid box is known by several names, with setup box and hard box being the most common. A rigid box is created by combining multiple layers of cardboard to form a solid and durable structure. By applying a coated paper layer, the box achieves an elegant and premium appearance. There is a wide range of box models available, and by varying the lid structure, multiple design options can be created. The key measurement criteria for these boxes are height, width, and length.

Production Process of Grey Board

Raw Material Preparation: Waste paper bales are placed into water-filled tanks to be turned into pulp.

  • The soaked paper fibers break down and mix through turbulence created by a rotor arm.
  • Paper processors separate the softened paper fibers from plastic, metal, sand, and gravel impurities, forming grey board.

Pressing & Drying:

  • High-temperature press rollers evaporate excess moisture from the pulp, reducing the water content to approximately 5%.
  • After the drying process, the pulp transforms into grey board.
  • The final step involves cutting the grey board into specific dimensions based on its grammage and packaging it for further use.

Rigid Box Manufacturing Process

Shaping the Box:

  • Grey boards are cut into specific thicknesses based on the required box specifications.
  • Special die-cut molds shape the grey board into the desired box form.

Printing & Design Application: The visual design is prepared by the design team.

  • The printed and treated coated paper is cut according to the box dimensions and design requirements.

Lamination (Wrapping Process):

  • The prepared coated paper is applied to the rigid board, giving the box a refined and high-end look.
  • This process ensures a smooth and elegant finish, making the rigid box ideal for luxury packaging.

Finalization of the Product

Once all preparations are completed, the lamination process (Wrapping the Rigid Board with Paper) is applied, finalizing the rigid box for production and use.
