Corrugated Packaging

Durable, Versatile, and Sustainable Solutions

At Rowlinson Packaging Ltd, we are experts in creating corrugated packaging solutions tailored to your business needs. Whether you’re shipping products, storing goods, or enhancing retail displays, our corrugated packaging is designed to offer exceptional protection, durability, and environmental benefits.

What is Corrugated
Packaging?

Corrugated packaging is crafted from corrugated fibreboard, consisting of three key layers:

  • Outer Liners: Flat sheets of paperboard on the top and bottom, providing a smooth surface.
  • Fluted Medium: A wavy layer sandwiched between the liners, offering strength, cushioning, and impact resistance.

This design makes corrugated packaging lightweight yet incredibly durable, making it ideal for a wide range of applications.
