What is a Box Compression Tester?

A Box Compression Tester (BCT) is a lab-grade machine used to measure the compressive strength of corrugated or cardboard boxes. It applies controlled vertical pressure to a box until it collapses, allowing users to determine its maximum load-bearing capacity. This test simulates real-life stacking during transport or storage.

Why it matters:
Weak boxes collapse under load. Strong ones deliver safely. The BCT helps you avoid product damage, reduce returns, and maintain customer trust.
