The European Federation of Corrugated Board Manufacturers (FEFCO) is a non-profit organization. It represents the interests of the industry throughout Europe and deals with a wide range of issues from technical topics to economic issues.
The purpose of this test method is to define the device and procedure for determining the thickness of corrugated board for boxes with quality seal. The method is suitable for all types of corrugated board.
The purpose of this test specification is to define the apparatus and method for determining the burst strength (Mullen Burst) of corrugated board. The method is suitable for all types of corrugated board.
The purpose of this test method is to specify the apparatus and procedure for determining the flat crush resistance of corrugated board for boxes with a quality seal. The method is suitable only for single-sided or double-sided, but not for double wall corrugated board
The purpose of this test is to define the apparatus and method for determining the water absorption of corrugated board in 30 min. The method is suitable for all types of corrugated board. For paper, the test should be performed according to EN 20535.
The edge crush resistance of corrugated board is defined as the maximum compressive force that a test piece can withstand before it is compressed. The test piece stands on one edge while the pressure is applied to the opposite edge under defined conditions.
The purpose of this method is to define the apparatus and procedure for determining the adhesion strength between corrugated board flutes and covers. The test method is suitable for all types of corrugated board.
This test method describes the procedure for determining the crush resistance of empty corrugated packaging, with or without inner packaging, using a compression testing machine.
