Detailed Project Report on corrugated boxes (automatic plant)

CORRUGATED BOXES (AUTOMATIC PLANT)
 [CODE NO.3789]

The materials now available for packaging are paper and paper products, metal containers and foils, glass, plastics-rigid and flexible, cellulosic films, textiles including jute, woven plastics and wood. Among the packaging materials, paper and paper based products continue to occupy a predominent place. Paper based materials used for packaging include bleached and unbleached kraft, corrugated and solid fiber boards and a large variety of converted items like wax coated, plastic coated, bitumen coated etc. Corrugated and solid fibre board boxes have replaced the conventional wooden boxes as transport containers because of their light weight and satisfactory strength. There are, however, several areas in which this sector is laggin behind the developed countries; they include mainly production of parchment paper for use in packaging of biscuits etc. Sack Kraft paper and high strength Kraft for producing corrugated fibre board of good strength characteristics.

Packaging has been assuming importance in the context of growth of industries in general and consumer industries in particular. Paper is one of the most important materials that enters packaging. Paper is extensively used for making boxes, bags, sealing tapes, drums and tubes and as cushioning materials.

Paper makers in the country are becoming conscious of the needs of container industry and are working to improve the existing qualities. In India textile, tea, tobacco and coffee are probably the largest consumers of papers. Out of the total paper production about 35 per cent goes to the packaging industry. With the advancement of industry, the production of paper and paper board is bound to increase, and the major increase will be in the field of packaging papers and boards. Paper is intact replacing the older materials used for packaging. In addition, paper in packaging is economical; light easy to handle and superior. Corrugated boxes and solid fibre containers are extensively being used in place of wooden boxes.
