Understanding material

C-Flute is by far the most common corrugated flute because of its versatility. It’s an acceptable surface to print on and is strong enough for most shipping situations. It’s not great at folding in the direction of the fluting, but is still adequate for most users.
C-Flute is 3-16ths of an inch thick.

Product Features

The easiest way to care for this desk is to use common sense.

It's made of corrugated paper and is super sturdy, but it won't last an underwater dive or a heavy karate chop.

It can take a human weight but, as fun as standing on it may seem, we wouldn't recommend you make a habit of it.
Fire will burn it, sharp knives will damage it and rain will wet it.

And while yes it is toxin-free and biodegradable, we don't recommend eating it.
