Apr 22, 2013. /Lesprom Network/. Rengo Co., Ltd. has developed and will begin selling Delta Flute, a new standard for corrugated board. Production is scheduled to progressively begin at all of Rengo’s corrugated plants in Japan from spring 2013, as the company said in a press release received by Lesprom Network.

Corrugated board is a type of architecture unto itself. Rengo has successfully created a product that is the further evolution of “Less Weight, Less Carbon” through the trinity of functionality, strong construction, and attractiveness—the architectural design concepts that have been prized since the time of Ancient Rome.

Delta Flute is a type of corrugated board with a thickness midway between B-flute, which has a thickness of approximately 3 mm and is used for purposes such as canned beer packaging, and E-flute, which has a thickness of approximately 1.5 mm and is used for purposes such as gift boxes.

This original Rengo product is a brand new standard that has never existed. Rengo will approach its users regarding conversion to this product as one effort to realize the widespread use of corrugated packaging that is more lightweight and more functional in order to further reduce impact on the environment.
