A corrugator is a group of machines for connecting three, five or seven sheets of paper in series to make single, double or triple boards. These machine-made corrugated boards are corrugated and glued to a single liner, which is then glued to the outer liner to form rigid board.
NEW YORK, Feb. 23, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Reportlinker.com announces the release of “Global Corrugated Board Market Size Analysis Report, Share and Industry Trends by Type, Capacity, End User, Regional Overview and Forecasts, 2022″ – 2028 ” – https://www.reportlinker.com/p06422331/?utm_source=GNW The inner liner, middle paper (also called corrugator) and outer liner are unwrapped on the corrugator at the same time. Corrugations or corrugations formed on the dielectric sheet are specifically called corrugations. To form the corrugations, the sheet is thermally pressed by moving it through grooved metal rollers. Through this process, the corrugated shape of the paper is achieved. On one side, the tip of the flute is coated with starch. Glue the outer and inner liners to the ends of the corrugated intermediate paper grooves on the outside and inside, respectively. Sheets thus formed are called flat sheets. Corrugated cardboard has several measurable qualities and properties. These are moisture content, edge crush test, tear strength, compressive strength, flat crush test, bending resistance, impact resistance, cushioning, tear resistance and weight in grams. The edge crush test calculates the compressive strength of the box and quantifies the force per unit width. The unit of measure is kN/m or lb/in. The pressure required to break a corrugated sheet is called tensile strength. Expressed in psi or kPa. The compressive strength of cardboard is a direct measure of the performance of a corrugated cardboard box. The unit of measure is kilogram-force or newton. Groove stiffness is measured by the flat compression test and is expressed in kilopascals. The weight per square meter of any material is measured in grams. Anisotropic corrugated board has many specific properties. For example, edge extrusion, stretch, bending stiffness, and surface properties will vary depending on the angle of the corrugated sheet and the orientation of the manufacturing machine. COVID-19 Impact Analysis Due to the COVID-19 outbreak and subsequent shutdowns, the corrugated board market has been hit hard. Food and beverage, supply chain and logistics, and other industries using corrugated as end products have also been affected. In addition, the COVID-19 outbreak has resulted in production disruptions for a number of corrugated consumer products. As a result, the corrugated board market has grown much more slowly throughout the pandemic. The US, UK, Germany, Italy and China are major producers that have been hit hard by the corrugator demand disruption due to the coronavirus outbreak and have previously been significant sources of corrugator demand. Market Growth Drivers Increasing demand for sustainability as a result of increased environmental awareness Organizations are expected to make a significant impact on the industry by enacting strict laws and regulations to encourage the use of recycled paper based products. Recyclable packaging is a key element of Minimize, Rework and Recycle’s environmental policy. It also represents an important step towards more sustainable packaging. Because most single-use plastic products are made using fossil fuels, they emit more greenhouse gases. In order to protect the environment and promote sustainable development, the authorities of some countries are restricting or completely banning the consumption of single-use plastic. Thus, the corrugated board market is expected to benefit in the coming years as various industries expand green initiatives. Growing consumer preference for e-commerce E-commerce provides customers with a variety of shopping options and makes shopping at home more convenient. This encourages more people to shop online, making the e-commerce industry one of the fastest growing industries in the world. Corrugated packaging is used by well-known e-commerce companies such as Alibaba, Amazon, and Flipkart to protect content from damage during shipping and transit. With advances in technology, corrugated packaging has made great strides in innovation in recent years. This will accelerate the growth of the market. Market restrictions reduce the supply of basic resources such as paper. The pulp and paper industry is one of the largest industrial sectors and has a huge impact on forests around the world. The industry uses 13% to 15% of the world’s timber supply and accounts for 40% to 50% of all commercial timber supplies worldwide. Products made in this industry include napkins, glossy paper, paper packaging, office paper, and catalog paper. Some of the most ecologically important places and species in the world have suffered huge losses due to the forestry practices used by some pulp and paper companies. In addition, the unsustainable pulp and paper industry is associated with irresponsible plantation development, popular discontent and human rights violations. Thus, the unfavorable regulatory environment is expected to hinder the growth and development of the market. Overview of Types Depending on the type, the corrugator market is divided into automatic and manual. In 2021, the automatic segment received the highest share of revenue in the corrugator market. Automatic corrugators consist of those machines that operate independently, with little or no operator involvement. Enterprises such as heavy industry provide automatic corrugators and production lines. Due to its autonomy, the automatic corrugator has a very high performance. In addition, by eliminating human interaction, the potential for user error in the end result is greatly reduced. Production capacity outlook According to production capacity, the corrugated board market is divided into under 10 tons, 11-50 tons, 51-100 tons and over 100 tons. The food and beverage market has dominated the global corrugator market in terms of end-users by 2021 and will continue to do so through 2028, thus reaching a market value of US$1,129.3 million by 2028, an increase of 3.5 % during the forecast period of growth of the average annual growth rate. The logistics and delivery market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.4% over the period (2022-2028). End User Perspective Based on the end user, the corrugated board market is divided into food and beverage, electronics, pharmaceuticals, logistics and delivery, and others. The food and beverage segment will have the largest revenue share in the corrugated paper market in 2021. The restaurant industry is currently quite expansive due to the increase in the number of people consuming fast food, the increase in the number of people buying food online, and the expansion of the global food trade. This was largely facilitated by the creation of various food corrugated packaging from corrugated cardboard. Regional Overview Analyzes the corrugated board market in North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and LAMEA at the regional level. Asia-Pacific received the highest revenue share in the corrugated board market in 2021. The huge developing potential of the manufacturing industry, including food and beverages, healthcare, electrical and electronics, etc., is responsible for the expansion of this sector. In addition, China, India and Vietnam are among the major manufacturing hubs in the Asia-Pacific region due to relatively simple legal requirements.
