Double Wall Boxes/Cartons
610 x 457 x 457mm (24 x 18 x 18) Double Wall Carton — Heavy-Duty Packing Box
This double wall corrugated carton is a robust, general-purpose shipping and storage box designed for heavier or more fragile items that need extra protection in transit. The double wall construction provides improved stacking strength and puncture resistance compared with single wall boxes, making it a dependable choice for warehousing, removals, eCommerce fulfilment, and industrial packing where durability matters.
Supplied as a standard slotted carton (commonly referred to as a regular slotted container / FEFCO 0201 style), it is quick to assemble and seals securely with packaging tape. This size is widely used as a versatile “mid-to-large” carton for bulky products, multi-item orders, and protective packing with void fill.

610 x 457 x 457mm Double Wall Carton — Full Product Guide
Choosing the right carton is about balancing protection, efficiency, and cost. A double wall carton in this popular size is often selected when a single wall box may be too light-duty for the product weight, the distribution environment is demanding, or the carton needs to stack reliably during storage and transport. Below is a practical guide to help you get the best performance from this carton style.
How It Works
Double wall corrugated board uses two corrugated “flutes” bonded between three liner papers. This layered structure increases rigidity and helps the carton resist crushing forces from stacking and handling. When the carton is assembled and sealed correctly, the box becomes a strong protective shell around your goods.
For best results, assemble the carton square, ensure the base flaps meet neatly, and apply tape in a consistent pattern. A well-sealed base is essential for heavier loads.
Materials and Construction
This carton is made from corrugated cardboard with a double wall construction. Corrugated board is widely used for packaging because it combines strength with relatively low weight and is easy to cut, fold, and tape.
The standard slotted carton format is designed for efficient manufacture and fast assembly. The flaps fold in to create a closed base and top, typically sealed with packaging tape.
Load, Packing and Protection Guidance
Performance depends on how the carton is packed. To maximise protection and stacking strength:
- Distribute weight evenly across the base and avoid point loads.
- Use cushioning (paper, bubble wrap, foam, air pillows) to prevent movement.
- Fill voids so contents cannot shift during transit.
- Reinforce the base with a strong tape seal (e.g., an “H-tape” pattern).
- Keep the carton square—bulging sides reduce stacking strength.
If you are shipping fragile items, consider internal dividers or additional protective wraps to prevent contact between products.
Floor Type Compatibility
In warehouse and packing environments, cartons are commonly handled on benches, conveyors, and pallets. For smooth operations:
- Ensure the carton is fully sealed before moving on rollers or conveyors.
- When palletising, align cartons in stable layers and avoid overhang.
- Use stretch wrap or strapping as needed to stabilise pallet loads.
Health and Safety
When packing heavier items, safe handling is important:
- Use correct lifting technique and team lift where appropriate.
- Do not exceed safe manual handling limits for your workplace.
- Seal securely to reduce the risk of the base opening during lifting.
- Label clearly if contents are heavy, fragile, or require upright handling.
Ideal Applications and Use Cases
This carton size and construction is commonly chosen for:
- Industrial and trade supply shipments where cartons may be stacked or handled frequently.
- eCommerce fulfilment for larger orders requiring protective packing.
- Spare parts and components where durability and consistent box performance matter.
- Storage and archiving of bulky items that benefit from a strong outer carton.
Maintenance, Cleaning and Care
Corrugated cartons are designed for packaging rather than long-term exposure to moisture. To keep cartons in good condition:
- Store flat in a clean, dry area.
- Avoid damp floors and protect from rain or condensation.
- Keep away from direct heat sources that may warp board.
- Rotate stock so cartons are used in order and remain crisp for easy assembly.
Case Study (Typical Packing Scenario)
A warehouse team dispatching mixed, heavier items needed a carton that could handle courier networks and occasional stacking in transit. By switching to a double wall carton in this size, they reduced carton damage and improved load stability. They also standardised their packing method: cushioning around edges, void fill to prevent movement, and consistent base sealing. The result was fewer returns due to transit damage and a smoother packing workflow.
Who Is It For?
- Businesses shipping heavier products or multi-item orders
