Paper Tube Packaging

Paper tube packaging is like a strong cardboard cylinder. Think of it as a super sturdy paper towel roll, but way better looking and designed to protect things. We, Custom Packaging UK, make these tubes to keep all sorts of products safe during shipping and storage. They are a great alternative to boxes, especially for items that are long and thin or need extra protection against crushing. What are Paper Tubes Made Of? These tubes aren’t made from just any old paper. We use layers of thick paperboard. Paperboard is like extra strong paper, much thicker than what you use in your printer. We wrap these layers around each other to build up the tube’s thickness. The more layers, the stronger the tube becomes. This makes them tough enough to handle the bumps and bruises of shipping. The paperboard we use is also sourced responsibly, meaning we care about the environment. Why Use Paper Tubes? There are lots of reasons why people choose paper tube packaging. First, they're really strong and protect what’s inside. Imagine you’re shipping a poster. Putting it in a flat envelope might lead to it getting bent. A paper tube keeps it rolled up and safe from wrinkles or tears. Second, paper tubes are lightweight. This means they don't add much weight to your package, which can save you money on shipping costs. Third, paper tubes are environmentally friendly. They are made from paper, which is a renewable resource. They can also be recycled after use, helping to reduce waste and protect our planet. Finally, they look good! Plain cardboard boxes can be boring, but paper tubes can be printed with bright colors and designs, making your product stand out. What Can You Put in a Paper Tube? You can put almost anything in a paper tube that fits! They are especially good for things that are long and thin or need to be protected from bending. Some common items include posters, artwork, documents, blueprints, maps, fishing rods, textiles like fabric rolls, and even some food items like spices or tea. Businesses also use them for promotional items like banners or product samples. Basically, if it can roll up or fit inside, a paper tube can probably protect it. Sizes and Shapes At Custom Packaging UK, we can make paper tubes in all sorts of sizes and shapes. We can make them long and skinny or short and wide. The diameter, which is the distance across the circle of the tube, can be customized to fit your product perfectly. We can also adjust the length of the tube to match the length of what you are shipping. While most are round, we can even create oval or square shaped tubes for certain applications. Just tell us what you need, and we'll work with you to create the perfect tube. Custom Printing and Design Want your paper tubes to really grab attention? We offer custom printing! You can print your company logo, product information, or any other design right onto the tube. We use different printing methods to make sure your design looks bright and clear. You can choose from a variety of colors and finishes. Printing on your paper tubes makes them look professional and helps people recognize your brand. It also helps in building brand recognition and loyalty among customers. Types of Closures A closure is what keeps the ends of the paper tube closed. We offer several different types of closures. One common option is a simple paper cap. These caps fit snugly over the ends of the tube. Another option is a plastic plug. Plastic plugs are more durable than paper caps and provide a tighter seal. We also offer metal ends for a more secure and professional look. For some products, we can even create a spiral wound tube with crimped ends. The best closure for you will depend on the weight and value of your product.
