Archival corrugated board

Description

A board that is folded or shaped with parallel alternative ridges and grooves. Corrugated or pleated Paper was patented in 1856 and in 1871 a patent was issued for corrugated Cardboard. By 1874, a machine was patented to make cellulosic corrugated board with liner sheets on each side. The alternating ridges increase the strength, and thickness of a material without increasing its weight. It is used for packaging and cushioning. Types of paper-based corrugated boards, such as Blueboard or Archival corrugated board, are often used in museums. More recently corrugated plastic sheets have also found multiple uses in museums. Some examples are: Coroplast, Cor-X, Correx, Hi-Core, Corrulite, Corulite, and Diversi-Plast.
