Corrugated (E/F-Flute) Packaging Sleeves
Thin fluted board with a printed face - noticeably stiffer than paperboard for heavier products.
The fluted middle layer adds crush strength and some insulation, so it suits box, handle and tray sleeves carrying heavier products or multipacks. Flat wraps like belly bands, cone and tube sleeves stay on paperboard, since flutes don't bend cleanly around tight curves.
