  Construction and remodeling jobs can be quite messy and damaging to the floors of a building. This can lead to costly repairs and damages. However, with the introduction of corrugated rolls, construction companies have found a more economical and efficient way to protect the property. Corrugated rolls are designed with a fluted (wavy) design adhered to a smooth layer of cardboard, making them lightweight yet sturdy protection for many purposes. Available in various widths, including 6” up to 72”, they are perfect for construction projects , and can be rolled out within a room to protect a newly laid wood or tile floor, or to cover and protect existing carpeting or cabinetry.

How to Choose the Right Case Sealer?

  Choosing the correct case sealer involves evaluating your facility’s operational needs and packaging specifications. Below are key factors to consider: Production Volume: The speed and throughput of your packaging line directly influence the type of case sealer you need.
