Basis Weight Testing: A measure of mass per unit area, expressed in pounds per thousand square feet. Basis weight is used to describe liner boards, corrugated boards, and boxes.

The Mullen Burst Test- Measures the bursting strength of the corrugated board. In the Mullen test, a rubber membrane bladder is pressed against the cardboard in a defined area to measure the pressure in pounds per square inch (psi) required for the cardboard to burst. Many customers, like Mullen, have tried boxes to protect heavier contents because they fear the liner will rip out.

ECT (Edge Crush Test)- Measures the top-to-bottom compressive strength of the cardboard box (also called stacking strength). This test emphasizes two areas of strength box compression strength (BCT) and stacking strength. If a customer is concerned about the maximum weight a corrugated box can hold, then ECT is your test. Today, it is the most commonly used type of test.
