corrugated cardboard (E flute, B flute)
Explanation:
These are two types of corrugated cardboard - Wellpappel
E flute, B flute
It is very important to know the type of cardboard that you will require when ordering your boxes. There are two factors to consider when choosing the type of cardboard - the flute and the wall construction.

Flutes
When dealing with differing types and styles of cardboard, we often refer to its flute, or flutes. What is a flute? Well, it simply means the type of corrugation that is sandwiched between the two outer layers of cardboard.
The larger the flute, the stronger the box.
Below is a small break down of the three types of flute that we offer at Cactus and their respective strengths
