Transport packages that employ wooden frames at the ends and fiberboard materials on sides designed to compromise between the wooden boxes and the corrugated fiberboard boxes. Corrugated fiberboard boxes are also designed with wooden uprights at the corners or with a wooden frame base to increase their stacking strength. Wire-bound fiberboards, and collapsible and returnable wire-bound corrugated boxes are also employed for shipments. Though these are reasonably strong, light in weight and most economical, yet they are not always suitable for export cargo on ocean voyages or for shipments likely to be exposed to much moisture. Increase in moisture content of CF adversely affects its rigidity and compression strength.
