Market Analysis: Correx in 2026

Market Trend 2026: The Strategic Shift to Reusable Correx Packaging
The End of Disposable Cardboard – A Costly Legacy
Cardboard’s single-use model is no longer viable for industrial procurement. Global waste reports confirm 40% of packaging landfill volume is cardboard, with disposal costs averaging $0.05–$0.10/unit. For a mid-sized logistics firm handling 10,000 units/month, this translates to $6,000–$12,000 annually in disposal fees alone. ESG pressures are accelerating this shift:
78% of Fortune 500 companies now mandate reusable packaging by 2025 (Source: Sustainability Leadership Network Report 2024)
Cardboard’s carbon footprint per use cycle is 40% higher than reusable PP solutions due to repeated raw material extraction and processing
Correx: The Sustainable, High-ROI Alternative
Correx (corrugated polypropylene) delivers 50+ reuse cycles with zero disposal costs, while reducing carbon emissions by 65% compared to cardboard. Below is a 5-year TCO comparison for 10,000 units/year:
| Metric | Cardboard | Correx (EVERPLAST) | Savings Over 5 Years |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cost per Unit | $0.15 | $0.80 | Higher initial investment |
| Usage Cycles | 1–2 | 50+ | 25x longer lifespan |
| Disposal Cost | $0.05/unit | $0 | $25,000 saved |
| Total Cost (5 Years) | $10,000 | $800 | $9,200 saved |
Note: Correx requires only 200 sheets annually for 10,000 uses (50 cycles/sheet). Virgin PP material ensures consistent performance across all reuse cycles without degradation.

Technical Specs & Customization Options
Technical Specifications & Customization Capabilities
Core Material & Extrusion Excellence
EVERPLAST Industrial operates 6 high-precision extrusion lines with 90,000 tons annual capacity, delivering consistent quality at scale. All sheets are manufactured using 100% virgin polypropylene (PP) under ISO 9001-certified processes, ensuring:
±0.1mm thickness tolerance (vs. industry-standard ±0.3mm for recycled grades)
Uniform cell structure for superior load-bearing capacity
Zero impurities or color inconsistencies
100% traceable raw material sourcing
| Feature | Everplast Premium PP | Recycled Market Grade |
|---|---|---|
| Raw Material | 100% Virgin PP | Mixed recycled PP |
| Extrusion Uniformity | ±0.1mm tolerance | ±0.3mm tolerance |
| Tensile Strength | 35-40 MPa | 25-30 MPa |
| UV Resistance | 2-5 years outdoor exposure | <1 year outdoor exposure |
| Color Consistency | Perfect batch-to-batch | Variable, requires dyeing |
| Contaminants | None | Possible impurities |
| Cost Impact | +15-20% premium | Base price |
| Application Suitability | Automotive, medical, high-end | Low-cost temporary uses |
Key Insight: While recycled materials reduce upfront costs by 10-15%, their 30-40% lower structural integrity increases total lifecycle costs by 25% in high-cycle applications like logistics containers and agricultural covers.
