Origin of carton:

1. Original packaging

The pre-history of human use of packaging can be traced back to ancient times. As early as the late primitive society about 10,000 years ago, with the progress of production technology, the remaining items were stored and exchanged, so the original packaging began to appear. At first, people bound their prey with kudzu vine and wrapped things with leaves, shells, hides and so on. This is an embryo developed in the original packaging.

Later, with the progress of labor skills, people made the most primitive baskets and baskets with plant fibers, and fired clay pots, bowls and irrigation with stones and clay to hold and preserve food, drinks and other items, which improved the convenient transportation, storage and preservation functions of packaging. This is the ancient packaging, which is the original packaging.

2. Traditional packaging

In ancient Egypt, glass containers were blown in 3000 BC. Therefore, the processing of various packaging containers with ceramics, glass, wood and metal has a history of thousands of years, during which many techniques have been continuously improved and developed and applied to the present.
