Box cutters for cardboard and packaging are safety knives designed for the fast, safe cutting of boxes, cartons and packaging materials. Whatever the thickness of the cardboard – one, two or three ply – MARTOR offers a suitable model for every task, protecting both the operator and the contents of the package.
In this subcategory you will find MARTOR safety knives for everyday work in warehouses, logistics centres, retail and manufacturing facilities. Every model is GS-certified and uses concealed-blade or automatic-retraction technology that reduces the risk of cuts and product damage to a minimum.
How to Choose a Box Cutter for Cardboard?
The choice depends on the cardboard thickness, how frequently you cut and your preferred safety technology. A greater cutting depth allows you to work with thicker, multi-ply boxes:
- For boxes up to 3-ply – SECUNORM 500, SECUPRO 625, SECUPRO MEGASAFE, SECUPRO MAXISAFE, SECUMAX 370. Durable models for intensive logistics and thicker packaging.
- For boxes up to 2-ply – SECUMAX 350, SECUMAX 350 SE. Versatile, lightweight concealed-blade knives for everyday unpacking.
- For general cardboard cutting – SECUNORM MIZAR, SECUNORM 175, SECUNORM MULTISAFE.
Concealed Blade or Automatic Retraction?
For cardboard, MARTOR offers two main approaches to safety. Models with a concealed blade (SECUMAX series) protect the blade completely – it never reaches the operator or the goods. Models with automatic or fully automatic blade retraction (SECUNORM and SECUPRO series) retract the blade as soon as you release the slider or lever, and with the SECUPRO series the blade retracts even while the lever is still pressed.
Why Use a Safety Box Cutter for Cardboard?
Unpacking boxes is one of the most common operations in a warehouse – and one of the most common causes of cuts. Safety box cutters for cardboard significantly reduce this risk, protecting both the operator's hands and the goods inside the box from accidental cutting.
