Product Overview
Corrugated plastic sheets can be made into a variety of reusable packaging boxes, containers and bulk boxes, which are widely used in the electronics and automotive industries.
Compared with moulded packaging boxes, corrugated plastic packaging boxes have the advantages of being shockproof and flexible in size and structure, and they carry no expensive mould cost. That matters when a part changes: the packaging drawing changes with it instead of a new tool being cut.
We can produce auto parts packaging boxes in different colours, thicknesses or styles according to your specific requirements.
Key Benefits
Lightweight Strong and Durable
Boxes take the weight of metal parts and still handle easily on the line.
Excellent Waterproof Moisture-Proof and Weather Resistant
Yard storage and sea transit do not soften the packaging.
Chemical Corrosion Resistance Impact Resistance and Anti-Fading
Oil and coolant residue on parts does not attack the box.
Environmentally Friendly Recyclable Washable Non-Toxic and Anti-Corrosion
Boxes wash between loops and recycle at end of life.
Easy to Process and Custom Cut Shapes
Dividers, inserts and cut-outs are made to the part geometry.
Excellent Surface for Spraying and Ink
Part numbers and routing marks print directly on the box.
Cost-Effective and Suitable for Any End User
No tooling investment before the first shipment.
Applications and Fit
Application Scenarios
- Returnable packaging between tier suppliers and assembly plants
- Bulk boxes for medium and large components
- Divided boxes for machined and painted parts
- Electronics sub-assembly packaging
Who It Is For
- Automotive tier 1 and tier 2 suppliers
- Assembly plant packaging engineers
- Electronics manufacturers
- Contract logistics providers running returnable loops
Problems It Solves
- Moulded packaging needs tooling before a single part ships.
- A part revision makes existing moulded packaging obsolete.
- Cartons cannot survive a returnable loop or a wash cycle.
- Loose parts move in transit and arrive damaged.
Technical Data
Specifications
| Sheet Thickness | 2 mm to 12 mm depending on box size and load |
|---|---|
| Sheet Weight | 250 g/m² to 2000 g/m² |
| Style | Reusable boxes, containers and bulk boxes to your drawing |
| Colour | Different colours to your specific requirement |
| Options | Dividers, layer pads, inserts, lids and handles |

Technical Features and Materials
Twin-wall polypropylene sheet fabricated into the box. ESD safe and flame retardant resins are available where the parts require them.
Manufacturing Process
- Raw Material High impact co-polymer polypropylene resin, with anti-static, conductive, UV or flame retardant masterbatch added at the extruder when a modified grade is ordered.
- Extrusion The sheet is extruded on one of six production lines to the ordered thickness and weight per square metre. Printing grade stock is corona treated on both surfaces during extrusion.
- Cutting and Creasing Sheets are cut to the ordered panel size and creased where the part has to fold.
- Fabrication Boxes, totes, trays, sleeves and layer pads are formed by welding, riveting or sealing the edges and corners, and accessories are fitted.
- Inspection and Packing Finished goods are inspected, then packed in plastic shrink film on wooden pallets or to the packing method the customer specifies.
From Enquiry to Delivered Goods
Quality Control
ISO 9001:2000 Quality Management System
Operations run to an ISO 9001:2000 quality management system so that the process meets international standards.
100% Inspection Before Delivery
Quality control is carried out inside our own factory and every product is 100% tested before it is released for delivery.
Extrusion Line Control
Thickness, weight per square metre, flute geometry and colour are set and checked on the extrusion line so each sheet matches the ordered specification.
Fabrication Check
Cut sizes, crease positions, welded corners and sealed edges are checked against the approved sample before packing.
Certifications and Standards
Operations run to an ISO 9001:2000 quality management system. Container resin can be specified as ESD safe or flame retardant meeting UL 94 HB flame retardant grade. Where food contact packing is required, 100% new virgin materials are used. We do not publish certificates we have not been given — ask and we will send what applies to your order.
Customization and Comparison
Customization Options
- OEM and customised orders are welcome. Send the drawing and the requirements of the style you want and we will submit samples for your approval.
- Thickness, weight per square metre, panel size, colour and grade are all set per order.
- Boxes and containers can be produced in different colours, thicknesses and styles to your detailed requirements, including dividers, layer pads and accessories.
- Printing and self-adhesive vinyl application are available on corona treated printing grade stock.
Comparison With Other Options
| Option | What It Means for You |
|---|---|
| Corrugated Plastic Box | No mould fee, shockproof, flexible size and structure, reusable |
| Moulded Packaging Box | Durable but expensive tooling and fixed geometry |
| Carton | Lowest unit price, single trip, fails when wet |
| Steel Rack | Very durable, heavy, high capital cost, hard to return empty |
Use Guide
- Send the part drawing or a sample with the enquiry so wall thickness and divider layout can be quoted properly.
- Decide the loop first: number of trips, wash cycles and return transport drive the sheet weight you need.
- If the parts are static sensitive, specify anti-static or conductive grade at enquiry stage.
- Ask for colour coding by part family so line operators can sort empties quickly.

FAQ
FAQ About Auto Parts Packaging Containers
Do We Have to Pay for Tooling
No. Corrugated plastic packaging boxes are fabricated from sheet, so unlike moulded boxes there is no expensive mould fee.
Can You Change the Size Later
Yes. Size and structure stay flexible because the box is cut and fabricated rather than moulded.
Can You Make ESD Versions
Yes. Anti-static and conductive sheet can be used for the same box design.
Can You Produce Different Colours and Styles
Yes. We produce different colours, thicknesses or styles according to your specific requirements.
How Do I Get Samples
Samples are free of charge. We send them as soon as possible by FedEx, UPS or DHL international air express.
