Abstract

The paper explains the impact of extreme heat (50℃) in May and June 2024 on the corrugated box (CBB) industry in Delhi NCR, particularly its effects on the paper-based packaging supply chain. Corrugated boxes are essential secondary packaging materials used across industries, including FMCG, e-commerce, and manufacturing. During this heat wave, the moisture content of these boxes dropped significantly below the required 7–9%, leading to widespread rejection by quality departments and operational disruptions. This study explores the challenges faced by the industry, including production halts and damaged goods, as well as potential solutions such as adjusting production schedules, using humidifiers, and temporary acceptance of suboptimal boxes. The findings emphasize the need for pre-emptive measures, such as issuing summer-specific specifications for CBB production, to mitigate future risks arising from climate extremes.
