All About Corrugated Mailers

Corrugated boxes and mailers offer strong protection for all types of products. They are often

the material of choice when boxes need to be used to provide crush resistance during shipping.

Whether you are mailing, shipping, storing or displaying them, the right corrugated box can keep

what is inside protected from the outside world. Just as there are many different applications

that these special containers can be used for, there are also different sizes and styles to

accommodate a wide range of needs.

These heavy-duty boxes also play a role in merchandising, marketing and point of sale. Some

products are placed in a box at the time they are manufactured until they arrive at their final

destination. In other instances, the box is chosen to serve a specific purpose at a retail location.

Corrugated trays may be used as a sturdy method of holding products for display or they may

be used in combination with shrink wrap to create a transparent package.

White corrugated boxes and mailers are often preferred because of their professional

appearance. They also provide a smooth surface that makes it easy to apply labels for shipment

or for identifying items placed in storage.

There are all types of boxes made to fit specific products and applications according to the

shape, size and use.

Easy Fold Mailers Literature Mailers

For instance, there are various sizes of flat boxes to accommodate heavy, solid items as well as

those that are lighter and non-standard. Literature mailers with protective side flaps and front

outside tuck closures are used for literature that requires dependable support and also offers

added protection during shipment.

While those made for shipping books and other heavy items require a strong support for the

extra weight, there is more flexibility in sizing with easy fold mailers. To use these, simply put

the item in the middle of the opened mailer that you want to mail and then fold flaps and seal.

This is a fast and easy mailing solution for many different types of items.

Garment mailers are also flat boxes that are made to ship even the heaviest outerwear. The key

to the strength of these boxes is in their die-cut, one-piece construction that doesn’t require tape

or glue to hold them together.

Some products need to be transported from place to place, making it necessary to have a

reliable carrying case that will hold promotional materials, samples, products and/or literature. A

corrugated carrying case with plastic handle inserted in the top is a convenient solution when

you are on the go.

Telescoping boxes may be either inner or outer telescoping, which means that the box is made

with two separate parts that fit one over top of the other. These boxes are useful for those

products that vary slightly in size. This method of packaging allows you to fit a variety of

products snugly in the same box rather than having to custom fit a box for each similar product.

They are also good for providing protection to items with an irregular shape that would

otherwise be difficult to pack.

Box mailers are not always a practical choice. For posters, blueprints and other similar items,

square or traingle mailing tubes allow large papers to be shipped without the need to fold them.

Square tubes are easier to transport in bulk as they don’t roll around like round mailing tubes.

Triangle tubes open along their length so that packing and shipping is easier than with

traditional round mailing tubes.

Corrugated boxes are also made for use as magazine file boxes, file storage boxes, ballot

boxes, audio/visual mailers and more. With so many styles to choose from, there is one that is

right for almost every application. Many businesses also appreciate the fact that corrugated box

mailers are an affordable option and a great value for a wide range of uses.

design to meet almost every need.
