4-Wall Gaylord Boxes For Sale Near Me
What Is a 4-Wall Gaylord Box?
4-ply Gaylord boxes are rugged, heavy-duty corrugated bins designed for tough industrial applications. Each wall is made by gluing together multiple layers of fluted cardboard, then bonded to form a strong four-wall structure. This layered construction delivers excellent durability and load-bearing strength, making them ideal for storing and transporting heavy or bulky materials.
Fluting Explained: How Strength Is Built
Fluting is the wavy interior layer in corrugated cardboard that creates rigidity. A 4-wall box typically combines layers of fluting from 1-wall, 2-wall, and 3-wall sheets, laminated together to form a unified high-strength panel.
Flute profiles also vary:
- Type A: thick and strong, good for heavy-duty applications
- Type B and C: standard for most general-purpose uses
- Type E and F: thinner and more precise, used for lighter or delicate goods
The mix of flute types impacts compression resistance and cost. Learn more about fluting options on our Gaylord box overview page.
