FMCG Packaging

What are fmcg packaging?

FMCG packaging from Bhaavya Ecopack delivers consistent brand colour, retail-ready formats and the monthly volumes fast-moving brands need — lot after lot.

Shelf presence dies when colours drift between orders. We proof first, verify print lot-wise, and match board to your distributor stacking so cartons look right and stack right across regions.

How we manufacture it

Because this product serves a regulated, quality-sensitive buyer, every stage carries a checkpoint: incoming kraft is GSM-verified, board is Cobb- and burst-tested per lot, blanks are dimension-checked against the approved die line, and print is compared to your signed proof before dispatch. Test records travel with the consignment.

Choosing the right spec

The right spec here balances protection with line efficiency and compliance: internal dimensions sized to your product with the correct clearance, board grade sized to stacking reality (not catalogue habit), and documentation matched to what your auditors or buyers actually ask for. We start from your product sample and transit route, then engineer backwards.

Engineering & standards — IS 2771 (Part 1): 2022

Indian corrugated boxes are governed by IS 2771:2022, which ties board type to the maximum mass of contents and prescribes minimum bursting strength and — new in the 2022 revision — a minimum Edge Crush Test value. The rows relevant to fmcg packaging:

3-Ply · Single wall
5-Ply · Double wall
Board construction

Kraft liners (dark) bonded to fluted medium (waves). More walls = more stacking backbone — the exact minimums are in the IS 2771:2022 table below.

Board typeMax contentsMax L+W+HMin bursting strengthMin ECT
Single wall (3-ply)Up to 5 kg635 mm6 kgf/cm²3.0 kN/m
Up to 8 kg900 mm8 kgf/cm²4.0 kN/m
Up to 10 kg1125 mm9 kgf/cm²4.25 kN/m
Up to 15 kg1275 mm10 kgf/cm²4.5 kN/m
Double wall (5-ply)Up to 20 kg1525 mm12 kgf/cm²5.0 kN/m
Up to 25 kg1715 mm13 kgf/cm²5.3 kN/m
Up to 30 kg1905 mm14 kgf/cm²5.6 kN/m
Up to 40 kg2286 mm17 kgf/cm²7.0 kN/m

Reference values from IS 2771 (Part 1): 2022, Bureau of Indian Standards — the governing Indian specification for corrugated fibreboard boxes. We engineer to or beyond these minimums for your load.

Strength you can calculate

Stacking strength is engineering, not guesswork. Box Compression Test (BCT) capacity can be estimated with the McKee formula — BCT ≈ 5.87 × ECT × √(board caliper × box perimeter) — and then verified on the actual box. We apply safety factors of 2× for short-cycle distribution up to 4× for long-hold warehousing (per ASTM D642 practice), because long-term usable strength under load creep is only 50–60% of the peak laboratory value.

Sustainability & commercials

Every tonne of recycled-fibre corrugated board avoids roughly 180 kg of CO₂ versus virgin production (DEFRA life-cycle factors), and industry equivalences credit each tonne of recycled paper with saving about 17 trees, ~26,500 litres of water and ~4,000 kWh of energy (US EPA). Corrugated is also India’s practical answer to the single-use-plastic phase-out: recyclable, repulpable and biodegradable in weeks rather than centuries.

Commercially, corrugated boxes fall under HSN 4819, and GST on corrugated boxes was reduced from 12% to 5% with effect from 22 September 2025 — worth re-checking on old supplier quotations. Pricing is driven by board grammage (GSM), ply, kraft paper prices (which rose ~6% through 2025), printing and quantity; we quote engineered specifications within 4 business hours, offer sampling before you commit, and support everything from trial lots to annual rate contracts.

Frequently asked questions

How do you keep brand colours consistent across orders?

A signed-off proof becomes the standard; every production lot is checked against it before dispatch.

Can you handle festive-season volume spikes?

2,000 MT/month annual capacity gives genuine headroom — surge months are planned into the schedule, not squeezed in.

What is the GST rate and HSN code for fmcg packaging in India?

Corrugated boxes fall under HSN 4819; GST was reduced from 12% to 5% effective 22 September 2025 (56th GST Council). We invoice at the current applicable rate with full documentation.

What is the minimum order quantity and lead time?

MOQs depend on size and print complexity — trial lots are welcome, and repeat production is scheduled to committed dispatch dates. Sampling comes first on request; quotations are returned within 4 business hours.
