Double-Wall Corrugated Boxesfor B2B Shipping
Nelson Container designs and manufactures custom, double-wall corrugated boxes for a wide range of high-value products and fragile items. Our double-wall boxes buffer the product inside from extreme temperatures, humidity, liquid, and rough handling.
Custom Double-Wall Corrugated Packaging
The strength of a double-wall corrugated box can vary depending on the flute profiles used. Nelson Container can build bulk double wall corrugated boxes with any combination of flute profiles to achieve the perfect balance between cushioning and strength. The size of the flutes, those wave-shaped arches sandwiched between the two liner boards, are the key to dialing in the cushioning properties and compression strength of a finished box. We also provide wholesale internal packaging design services to ensure your product is organized and secure during shipping.
Vendor Managed Inventory Service Eliminates Overstock and Understock
If you run a seasonal business, you know how the seasonal surge can catch you off-guard. With Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) services from Nelson Container, you’ll never find yourself out of shipping boxes when you need them most. When your supply hits the re-stock level, we get an alert and immediately ship out more boxes. If we don’t have enough of the boxes you need, our quick response manufacturing capabilities enable us to produce them in record time.
Businesses that ship products with the same packaging and/or have seasonal demand for their products are strong candidates for vendor-managed inventory service. Even if your business is not seasonal, however, VMI can make your life a little easier and your shipping glitch-free. You even have the option of getting your packaging delivered pre-assembled, so there’s no time wasted putting boxes together.
