CA (High-Performance Medium)
Heavy-Duty Compression Grade
High-performance fluting medium treated with fiber-reinforcing technology to achieve exceptional Concora Medium Test (CMT) and Ring Crush Resistance (RCT). Ideal for export containers, refrigerated cold storage, and heavy stacking loads.
Key Advantages
- ✓ Superior Concora Medium Test (CMT) prevents flute collapse
- ✓ Resistant to moisture buildup in cold rooms and sea freight
- ✓ Increases box compression strength without excessive tare weight
- ✓ Runs flawlessly on high-speed corrugating lines without web breaks
Ideal Applications
- • Fresh fruit and frozen seafood export boxes
- • Automotive parts and heavy industrial machinery
- • Premium 3-ply and 5-ply corrugated box structures
