FAQs
What are plastic boards used for?
Plastic boards are suitable for several different applications. Most commonly, printers use Correx® and other fluted plastic materials for signage, including estate agent boards, supermarket bollard covers, political party banners, and so on. Correx® is also widely used for floor protection on construction sites or for creating bespoke, reusable transit packaging and handling products.
How long does plastic sheet material last?
The lifespan of corrugated plastic boards can vary depending on both use and environment. Used for handling of parts in a factory or other indoor location, Correx® material can last upwards of 5 years (potentially even as long as 20 years). However, if used as part of a wider supply chain or as signage exposed to the elements, its expected lifespan is approximately 1-2 years.
Is plastic sheet material waterproof?
Plastic sheets such as Correx® and Bubble board are water-resistant, making them ideal for outdoor use. They are also suitable for manufacturing packaging that is mostly waterproof, too. Correx® is also chemically inert, does not react to oils, doesn’t shed fibres, and is easy to clean.
Is plastic board material flammable?
Whilst there are flame-retardant grades of Correx®, standard plastic materials manufactured using Polypropylene are flammable. For details on specific materials, including safety data sheets, please get in touch.
Is it possible to print on corrugated plastic boards?
The smooth surfaces of Correx® and other corrugated plastic materials make them suitable for printing. Popular methods include screen printing or digital techniques.

Why work with GWP Correx®?
At GWP Correx®, our core business is supplying bespoke packaging and handling products.
As a result, we maintain a significant stockholding of Correx, Bubbleboard and Corriplast, and whilst primarily this is for the packaging we manufacture, you can take advantage of it too. Essentially, our stock of material allows you to source plastic sheets in low to high volumes on very short lead times.
However, if you are using the material to manufacture packaging at your business, you can ask us to supply prefabricated Correx® products, saving you time and effort.
We have a team of dedicated designers with specific knowledge of the materials in question, specialist manufacturing equipment, and are happy to supply any products you request on a confidential, trade service.
Please speak with a member of our team to day to see how we can help with your returnable packaging or sheet material requirements.
