In the modern logistics and warehousing industry, injection molded boxes and corrugated plastic boxes are widely used for transporting and storing all kinds of goods. Many companies may feel confused when choosing between these two types of boxes. Today, we'll take a look at the differences between injection molded boxes and corrugated plastic boxes to help you determine which is more suitable for your business needs.
1. Material differences
Corrugated plastic boxes are made of environmentally friendly corrugated plastic sheet as raw material, after die-cutting, bending, welding and other processes. Injection molded boxes are mainly made of plastic as raw material by high pressure injection molding.
2. Structural differences
Corrugated plastic boxes are lightweight, easy to transport and handling, load-bearing capacity is slightly inferior to the injection molded boxes. Injection molded box structure is more solid, load-bearing capacity is stronger, but relatively heavy, transportation costs may be higher.
3. Differences in use scenarios
Corrugated plastic boxes are suitable for lighter goods storage and transportation, such as electronic parts, textiles, furniture, etc.; injection molded boxes are commonly used in production lines, warehousing, logistics and other occasions, high load-bearing requirements of the category, such as automotive parts, hardware accessories.
4. Differences in customization
Corrugated plastic boxes are highly customizable and can be made in a wider variety of sizes, colors and shapes according to customer needs; due to the limitations of the injection molding process, injection molded boxes are relatively less flexible in terms of customization in terms of sizes, colors and so on.
5. Differences in environmental protection
Corrugated plastic boxes are made of environmentally friendly corrugated plastic sheets, which can be recycled and reused to reduce environmental pollution. Injection molded boxes at the end of their service life, although they can be recycled, but the difficulty and cost of their recycling is relatively high.
