瓦愣纸板包装容器在功能上具有优越于其他种类包装容器的特性。
　　1、造型结构的可塑性。瓦楞纸板是由多层纸板复合而成的，自然具有纸张的易加工性，它可以根据包装内容物的特定需要进行裁切、开槽、冲孔、模切、接台、折叠，从而构成大小不同、形状各异的包装容器和衬垫材料，其可塑性是术材、塑料、金属、玻璃等其他包装材料所不及的。
　　2、刚柔兼备的保护性。保护产品安全流通是包装的首要目的，作为任何产品的包装容器都必须能够有效地确保其所盛装的产品安全，否则便从根本上失去包装的意义。产品在流通过程中受损的原因大都足由于外力的作用造成的，就大多数的产品而言，理想的能够防范产品受损的包装容器必须具备有足以承受外力作用的硬度和化解反作用力的弹性，才能达到有效保护产品的目的。瓦楞纸板包装窖器的制造工艺科学地解决f包装容器刚莱兼备的潜在功能，成为内包装物与外力作用之间理想的巾间保护体，这也是其他包装材料和工艺技术难以企及的。
　　3、包装操作的简单性。瓦楞纸板包装容器由于材质轻、结构巧、质地柔韧，包装使用过程简便，容易操作，无论折叠、装填、封口或堆放等各个包装环节都易于进行机械化操作。
　　4、美化商品的促销性。瓦楞纸板包装特有的轻巧、造型结构的变异及其外观的装潢印刷，都可以通过精心的设计和加工-．艺来体现，使之具有美化商品促进销售的包装功能，其效果并不亚于其他种类的包装容器，甚至还会有它独特的优越性。
　　5、流通环节的适应性。瓦楞纸板包装容器具有多方而的流通功能。可以按流通功能的各种不同要求，采用不同定量不同质地的原纸，以不同的瓦楞型号制成不同瓦层的瓦楞包装容器，分别适用于运输包装或销售包装，集装包装或单体包装，内包装或外包装等各种不同流通作用的大、中、小包装容器。瓦楞包装容器规格的复活多变性使其更易于实现包装容器的模数化。
　　6、包装成本的低廉性。包装产品的成本构成，主要是由原材料的投入和加工制造的费用两大部分组成的。瓦楞纸板包装容器的主要原材料是原纸，通常占瓦楞包装的总成本70%～80%，而纸张的制造成本比塑料、金属、玻璃等包装容器的原材料成车低，这就在很大的比重上决定了瓦楞纸板包装容器成本的低靡，只占20%～30%的加工制造费用（包括瓦楞纸板制造、容器成型加工和印刷装潢等），其绝对成本同样要比其他包装容器的加工制造费用低，因此，瓦楞纸板容器总成本的低廉自然成为包装用户乐于接受的重要经济因素。
　　7、资源利用的有效性。将术材加工成瓦楞纸板制作包装容器，是对木材资源的一种极其有效的利用方法。天然术材的机理与经过加工后的纸张极其相似，但是如果同样以面积lm2、厚度1cm的木料板材和瓦楞纸板比较，木板的净材积为。．Olm3，而瓦楞缍板所耗费的木材（原料）一般只需要0. 003d．仅为木料板材的30%．瓦楞包装的木材资源利用率比直接用木材作包装材料高出233%。也就是说，术材包装和瓦楞包装比较，二者在同等包装承重条件下，后者的用材量和包装成本大约均只占前者的1/3，lm3木材加工制成的瓦楞包装容器可以顶3m3术材制成的木材包装容器使用。
　　8、回收利用的方便性。瓦楞纸板包装的基本材料几乎全是纸张，使用后的瓦楞包装容器及其内衬垫物料均可以很方便地予以回收，然后加工再生为瓦楞纸板的原料——原纸，其回收和加工的费用低靡，工艺简单，消耗比重小，回收再生利用率可达70%～75%左右。如今，对瓦楞纸包装容器的回收利用已经成为一种趋势和必然。
　　9、与人友好的环保性。当今人类对生存环境的保护意识越来越重视，无公害的绿色包装越来越成为人们所企望的理想选择。用过的瓦楞包装容器大多数得以回收利用（目前在工业发达国家瓦楞包装容器的回收率有的已高达80%以上），即使有少量被人们废弃掉作为垃圾处理，无论是人工焚化或自然降解，都不至于对环境造成严重的或长期的污染影响，这一点瓦楞纸包装明显优于其他材料。
　　10、储运费用的节约性。瓦楞纸板包装容器是集装容积率最高的立方体包装，同时又是可折叠的轻质硬体包装，如此独特的特点使之在包装使用全过程中可以节省许多运输和仓储费用。另一方面，瓦楞纸板密度小．也会节约部分运输费用。
　　当然，瓦楞纸板包装并非毫无弱点，如易潮湿，液体易渗漏，有限的承重能力等，这些不足可以通过一些技术方法得到一定程度的改善，同时也给瓦楞纸包装的发展和改进提出r进一步的课题。 

The function of Waleng paperboard packaging container is superior to other kinds of packaging containers.

1. The plasticity of modeling structure. Corrugated paperboard is composed of multi-layer paperboard, which naturally has the paper's processability. It can be cut, slotted, punched, die-cut, connected and folded according to the specific needs of the packaging contents, so as to form packaging containers and liner materials of different sizes and shapes. Its plasticity is beyond the technical materials, plastic, metal, glass and other packaging materials.

2. The protection of both rigidity and softness. The primary purpose of packaging is to protect the safe circulation of products. As a packaging container of any product, it must be able to effectively ensure the safety of the products it contains, otherwise it will lose the meaning of packaging fundamentally. The reasons for the damage of products in the circulation process are mostly due to the effect of external force. For most products, the ideal packaging container that can prevent the damage of products must have enough hardness to withstand the effect of external force and elasticity to dissolve the reaction force, so as to achieve the purpose of effective protection of products. The manufacturing technology of corrugated board packaging cellar can scientifically solve the potential function of F packaging container, and become an ideal protective body between inner packaging and external force, which is also difficult to be matched by other packaging materials and technology.

3. The simplicity of packaging operation. Due to its light material, ingenious structure and flexible texture, corrugated board packaging container is easy to use and operate. It is easy to carry out mechanized operation in all packaging links such as folding, filling, sealing or stacking.

4. Beautify the promotion of goods. The unique lightness of corrugated board packaging, the variation of modeling structure and the decoration and printing of its appearance can be reflected through careful design and processing, so that it has the packaging function of beautifying goods and promoting sales. Its effect is no less than other kinds of packaging containers, and even has its unique advantages.

5. The adaptability of circulation links. Corrugated board packaging container has the function of multi-party and multi-party circulation. According to the different requirements of the circulation function, the corrugated packaging containers with different corrugated layers can be made by using the base paper with different quantity and texture and different corrugated models. They are suitable for large, medium and small packaging containers with different circulation functions, such as transportation packaging or sales packaging, container packaging or single packaging, inner packaging or outer packaging, etc. The flexibility of corrugated packaging container makes it easier to realize the modularization of packaging container.

6. Low cost of packaging. The cost of packaging products is mainly composed of the input of raw materials and the cost of processing and manufacturing. The main raw material of corrugated board packaging container is base paper, which usually accounts for 70% - 80% of the total cost of corrugated packaging, and the manufacturing cost of paper is lower than that of plastic, metal, glass and other packaging containers, which determines the low cost of corrugated board packaging container in a large proportion, accounting for only 20% - 30% of the processing and manufacturing costs (including corrugated board manufacturing, container forming and packaging) The absolute cost of corrugated cardboard containers is lower than that of other packaging containers. Therefore, the low total cost of corrugated cardboard containers naturally becomes an important economic factor that packaging users are willing to accept.

7. The effectiveness of resource utilization. It is an extremely effective way to use wood resources to process technical materials into corrugated cardboard to make packaging containers. The mechanism of natural wood is very similar to that of processed paper, but the net volume of wood board is 0. 003d, which is only 30% of that of wood. The utilization rate of wood resources of corrugated packaging is 233% higher than that of using wood as packaging material directly. In other words, compared with corrugated packaging, the latter only accounts for about 1 / 3 of the former in terms of material consumption and packaging cost under the same packaging load-bearing conditions. The corrugated packaging container made of lm3 wood processing can be used as the top of 3m3 wood packaging container made of technical materials.

8. The convenience of recycling. The basic material of corrugated paperboard packaging is almost all paper. The used corrugated packaging container and its inner liner materials can be easily recycled, and then processed and recycled into the raw material of corrugated paperboard base paper. The cost of recycling and processing is low, the process is simple, the consumption proportion is small, and the recycling rate can reach about 70% ~ 75%. Nowadays, the recycling of corrugated packaging containers has become a trend and inevitable.

9. Friendly and environmentally friendly. Nowadays, people pay more and more attention to the protection of living environment, and pollution-free green packaging is becoming an ideal choice. Most of the used corrugated packaging containers can be recycled (at present, the recycling rate of corrugated packaging containers in industrial developed countries has reached more than 80%). Even if a small amount is discarded as garbage, whether it is artificial incineration or natural degradation, it will not cause serious or long-term environmental pollution. Corrugated packaging is obviously better than other materials 。

10. Saving of storage and transportation cost. Corrugated board packaging container is not only the cube packaging with the highest volume ratio, but also the foldable light hardware packaging. Such a unique feature can save a lot of transportation and storage costs in the whole process of packaging. On the other hand, the density of corrugated board is small. It will also save some transportation costs.

Of course, corrugated board packaging is not without weaknesses, such as easy to wet, liquid easy to leak, limited load-bearing capacity, etc. these shortcomings can be improved to a certain extent through some technical methods. At the same time, it also puts forward further issues for the development and improvement of corrugated paper packaging.
