Why Strength Matters
A weak box crushes in shipping. Products break, returns happen, customers complain.
Getting the right strength is as important as the right size.

Rule of thumb: If your product weighs over 10kg, use double-wall.
Stacking Strength
Stacking strength = how much weight a box can hold on top of it.
This matters if:
- Your boxes are stacked in a warehouse
- They’re stacked in shipping containers
- They’re on a pallet
Weak boxes = crushed inventory.
When to Upgrade Strength

Heavy products (>10kg)
|
Double-wall

Box Closure
Even a strong box fails if it’s closed wrong:
- Tape width — Use 48mm minimum
- Tape length — 50mm over each flap
- Tape type — Packing tape, not office tape
- Flaps meet — No gap between top flaps
Common Strength Mistakes
- Under-specifying board — Box collapses in transit
- Oversizing the box — Bigger box = weaker per unit weight
- Sem proteção nos cantos — Corners crush first
- Wrong flute type — E flute for light, B for medium, C for heavy
- Cheap tape — Box opens during shipping
