Wax-coated corrugated boxes can be easily customized in terms of size, thickness, and coating level to suit different types of goods and transportation needs. They can also be printed with branding, handling instructions, or regulatory information without compromising their waterproofing capabilities. This makes them suitable for a wide range of industries, from food and pharmaceuticals to floral and agricultural exports.
While plastic containers also offer water resistance, wax-coated boxes are generally more cost-effective and environmentally friendly. They are easier to produce in bulk, lighter in weight (reducing transportation costs), and can often be made with partially recycled materials. For many companies, this provides an ideal balance between performance and affordability.
