you could use : XXXX cigarette carton to differentiate the meaning.

Corrugated cardboard boxes

Im not sure Colin, but this term might be slang as suggested and thus, the similarity with "corrugated".

Just wanted to offer a possible alternative and explanation and I wasnt sure of my suggestion either, hehe.
Note from asker:
I thought of this because in english we say "Kraft" paper for corrugated cardboard. But these are the thin cardboard boxes you see in Duty Free shops etc.
