Regarding the question of how to cut corrugated plastic sheets, it is actually not difficult at all! Simply put, there are two methods, one is to cut directly with a utility knife, and the other is to use professional equipment to press and shape. If you want to cut corrugated plastic sheets easily, you must not only choose the right tool, but also choose the right method!

First, we need to know what is corrugated plastic sheets

PP corrugated sheets are made of environmentally friendly and non-toxic polypropylene, which is light in weight and very durable. Corrugated Plastic Sheets are also known as Coroplast Boards, Correx Sheets, Corflute Boards, Infraboard, Danpla Sheets, PP Hollow Boards, etc. Coroplast Sheets are commonly referred to as “Double Wall Sheets”. You can identify double walls by looking at the paper from the side. Does it appear to have three distinct layers, with a lattice-like hollow structure between the two slabs. This mid layer allows it to absorb shock and support weight. Corflute Sheets are most commonly used for packaging.

Next, let’s explain how to cut corrugated plastic sheets with a utility knife

This method is only suitable for DIY handcraft enthusiasts or individuals for personal use. Corrugated plastic cardboard sheets can also be difficult to cut without sharp tools. Usually, utility knives, scissors, and paring knives on the market can easily handle this material. They are sharp enough to cut through the corrugated plastic board, just follow the direction of the grain. Use duct tape to hold it on a flat surface when cutting full corrugated pp sheets. Avoid stretching the panels and affecting the cut line. Measure and mark the cut you want very carefully. A ruler is helpful when cutting. Watch this demo.
