Besset Boudot Cartonnage

What they make

According to their website, Besset Boudot Cartonnage is a family-run manufacturer of custom corrugated cardboard packaging based in Saint-André-de-Corcy, near Lyon, operating since 1900. The site states it makes packaging exclusively to order rather than from standard ranges, covering American-style cases, boxes, trays, sleeves, cross-fold sleeves, octabins, and cardboard pallet caps and spacers, produced from recycled and recyclable board. A specialty is triple-flute corrugated board - seven layers formed from three flutings bonded between four kraft sheets, about 14 mm thick - stated to carry loads of 100 to 500 kg and compression resistance above 20 kN/m, used for heavy automotive, aeronautical, and machinery components. An in-house design team reviews specifications before production; the site cites 48-hour quotes, prototypes in under a week, express runs in three days, and monthly output above 120 tonnes from a single site combining manufacturing, storage, and dispatch. The company also offers inventory storage in a 4,500 m² warehouse with staggered deliveries, using its own trucks regionally and logistics partners nationwide. No certifications are stated on the site.
