Cardboard boxes can come in many shapes and sizes, you can have what I would call the most common box with flaps at the top and bottom to the more unusual die-cut boxes. A die cut box is a box which has been made using a cutting forme, basically you have a flat piece of cardboard and a cutting forme which has lots of blades mounted on a sheet of wood which presses out a shape in the cardboard and this shape folds to make a box. I suppose it is a bit like a cutting tool in the kitchen which is used to cut shapes in pastry to bake.
To make a Cardboard box, first you need the corrugated board to make into a box. Corrugated board is generally made of three pieces of paper bonded together with a starch adhesive. The two outer layers (liners) remain flat any way the middle layer of paper is made wavy (known as fluting) this gives the stock its compel and is now called corrugated board.

The most common types of corrugated board are singular wall, which uses three pieces of paper to make it with the middle layer being the fluting (wavy). There are also double wall boxes these are made up from two singular walled layers, so you have 3 paper liners sandwiched with two sets of fluting.
Once you have your blank piece of corrugated cardboard you need to cut it to size, the size of the blank (this is the name for the uncut piece of cardboard) will obviously depend on the size of box you want to create. Say you want a box 305Lx229Wx229H mm (we always measure boxes by the length first then the width then the height) you would need to measure your box as: 305+229+305+229+50 = 1118mm wide against the fluting (the 50 measurement is left for the glue flap), by 229+229 =458mm height (with the fluting) The fluting always runs with the height of the box, to find out more on how we get those measurements see how to measure a box.
Once you have cut your bank to size you now need to cut your top and bottom flaps and then glue the box together using the glue flap.
You now have your cardboard box made to your exact size.
