Exploring the Uses and Benefits of Cardboard

Cardboard is a versatile and widely used packaging material due to its cost-effectiveness, ease of production, and recyclability. It is made from heavy-duty paper and often features corrugated layers for added strength. Historically, cardboard became commercially viable in the 1800s, with early adopters like the Kellogg Brothers. Today, various types of cardboard, such as cardstock, paperboard, and corrugated fiberboard, serve different purposes. Beyond packaging, cardboard is used in art and construction, offering environmental benefits as a biodegradable and recyclable material.
