Kaushal1, V.K.Sirohiya2 and R.K.Rathore3 1 2 Assistant Prof. Mechanical Engineering Department, Gwalior Institute of Information Technology,Gwalior, Assistant Prof. Mechanical Engineering 3 Departments, Gwalior Engineering College, Gwalior, M. Tech students Maharanapratap College of Technology, Gwalior, [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] ABSTRACT Corrugated board is widely used in the packing industry. The main advantages are lightness, recyclability and low cost. This makes the material the best choice to produce containers devoted to the shipping of goods. Furthermore examples of structure design based on corrugated boards can be found in different fields. Structural analysis of paperboard components is a crucial topic in the design of containers. It is required to investigate their strength properties because they have to protect the goods contained from lateral crushing and compression loads due to stacking. However in this paper complete and detailed information are presented. Keywords: - corrugated boards, recyclability, compression loads. Smaller flutes offer printability advantages as well as I. INTRODUCTION structural advantages for retail packaging. Corrugated board is essentially a paper sandwich consisting of corrugated medium layered between inside II. HISTORY and outside linerboard. On the production side, corrugated In 1856 the first known corrugated material was patented is a sub-category of the paperboard industry, which is a for sweatband lining in top hats. During the following four sub-category of the paper industry, which is a sub-category decades other forms of corrugated material were used as of the forest products industry.

  • Label Liners: Meeting the Sustainability Challenge
    Label liners: meeting the sustainability challenge By Mariya Nedelcheva, Product Manager Film & With ever-greater emphasis placed on packaging and waste reduction, Jenny Wassenaar, Compliance & Sustainability brand owners are looking for solutions that secure their sustainability Director, Avery Dennison credentials. Consumers pay particularly close attention to packaging, where there are significant environmental gains to be made. For example, waste from labelling can create useful by-products and circular economies. Waste is not always visible on the final packaging, but its impact on brand reputation is no less real. Consumers’ perceptions of a brand can be enhanced when sustainability is improved. label.averydennison.com Matrix Liner Final White paper waste waste label 16% 35% 37% Start-up waste plus Challenge printed End-user The challenge of recycling waste from the labelling process in error scrap - and ideally creating useful by-products - is complex. Many 10% 1% different elements must be addressed in order to move towards the ultimate goal of zero waste. For example, the word ‘recyclable’ can mean many things, and should not be viewed in isolation. Today there is a chance that recyclable products will still end up in landfill, so what matters is establishing genuinely viable end-to-end recycling solutions. That means considering every component within packaging, including where it comes from, how much material has been used, and what happens at every stage of the package’s journey through the value chain. This paper discusses how the sustainability of labelling laminates can be improved, with a particular focus on the label release liners that are left behind once labels have been dispensed.

  • U.S. Postal Service Mail Addressing Guidelines
    U.S. Postal Service Mail Addressing Guidelines Address Placement Placement of the address on the face of an envelope should conform to the following U. S. Postal Service specifications. • The address should be in an area, one inch from each side of the envelope. • The top of the address should be no more than 2 3/4 inches from the bottom of the envelope and the bottom no more than 5/8's of an inch from the bottom of the envelope. • The area 4 1/2 inches by 5/8 's of an inch in the lower right hand corner of the envelope MUST remain empty for bar code placement for any maul that is processed by the Mail Center. Enclosures Correspondence Mail of any kind for transport by the U. S. Postal Service must be enclosed in an appropriate envelope or parcel and sealed. The type of enclosures determine the mailing classification. Non-mailables Several items are listed by the U. S. Postal Service as non-mailable in envelopes: • paper clips • metal pieces • glass, chips • sand. These can jam or damage the mailing machines and can cause serious injury to Mail Center and Postal employees. The following are also classified as non-mailables and subject to return to sender: envelopes and cards less than 3 1/2 inches in height or 5 inches in length. It is recommended that when mailing questionable items to U. S. or foreign destinations, the mailer should contact the Mail Center for assistance. All foreign countries also impose various restrictions. Brochures, letters and newsletters being mailed without an envelope must be folded consistently and must be tabbed with the recommended number of tabs.

  • Estimation of the Compressive Strength of Corrugated Cardboard Boxes with Various Perforations
    energies Article Estimation of the Compressive Strength of Corrugated Cardboard Boxes with Various Perforations Tomasz Garbowski 1 , Tomasz Gajewski 2 and Jakub Krzysztof Grabski 3,* 1 Department of Biosystems Engineering, Poznan University of Life Sciences, Wojska Polskiego 50, 60-627 Pozna´n,Poland; [email protected] 2 Institute of Structural Analysis, Poznan University of Technology, Piotrowo Street 5, 60-965 Pozna´n,Poland; [email protected] 3 Institute of Applied Mechanics, Poznan University of Technology, Jana Pawła II Street 24, 60-965 Pozna´n,Poland * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: This paper presents a modified analytical formula for estimating the static top-to-bottom compressive strength of corrugated board packaging with different perforations. The analytical framework is based here on Heimerl’s assumption with an extension from a single panel to a full box, enhanced with a numerically calculated critical load. In the proposed method, the torsional and shear stiffness of corrugated cardboard, as well as the panel depth-to-width ratio is implemented in the finite element model used for buckling analysis. The new approach is compared with the successful though the simplified McKee formula and is also verified with the experimental results of various packaging designs made of corrugated cardboard. The obtained results indicate that for boxes containing specific perforations, simplified methods give much larger estimation error than the analytical– numerical approach proposed in the article. To the best knowledge of the authors, the influence of the perforations has never been considered before in the analytical or analytical–numerical approach for estimation of the compressive strength of boxes made of corrugated paperboard.

  • The HP Molded Fiber Advanced Tooling Solution White Paper | the HP Molded Fiber Advanced Tooling Solution
    White paper The HP Molded Fiber Advanced Tooling Solution White paper | The HP Molded Fiber Advanced Tooling Solution Macrotrends driving the packaging market The packaging market is transitioning from foam/plastic to molded fiber (also known as molded pulp) packaging for sustainability reasons, with environmental packaging (i.e., replacing foam with paper) favoring the growth of this segment. The molded fiber packaging market is a worldwide industry, valued at $8 billion, and is the fastest-growing segment in the packaging market, with growth being fueled by growing consumer demand for sustainable and environmentally friendly packaging solutions, as well as the increase in take-out food and e-commerce.1 Asia-Pacific countries (APAC) are the biggest geographical market, especially China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. The region is experiencing the highest growth and is expected to be the largest market by 2024. This growth can be attributed to the rising importance of disposable packaging,2 as well as the lower cost of tooling production in these areas, which presents a significant price advantage over other regions. The primary segments currently are food and beverage and electronics, which are estimated to have the highest growth. The increasing use of molded pulp products for the packaging of various electronic products (including mobile phones and accessories, computers, printers, modems, trimmers, and projectors, among others) due to its convenience, improved sustainability, and low cost are some of the factors contributing to the growth of this segment.2 Molded fiber manufacturing The thermoformed tooling segment is expected to outgrow other segments, propelled by increased consumer demand for high-quality molded fiber packaging and ongoing innovation driving down thermoforming-packaging manufacturing costs.
