Brown box

Term · Industrial and trades · MLC-T-IND-000791

A plain, unbranded corrugated cardboard box used for shipping products, particularly in business-to-business and e-commerce logistics. The term distinguishes these functional, cost-effective containers from the decorated retail packaging designed to attract consumers in a store. These boxes are specified by material strength, such as the Edge Crush Test (ECT) rating, rather than by their appearance.
