Inhouse Technologies
We manufacture almost every component of the tube in-house. It allows us to answer flexibly on your demand, and we can realize fast time-to-markets. Our competence includes extruding mono-layer, 2-7 multi-layer tubes, or making multi-layer barrier web. We produce injection molded shoulders and screw or flip-top caps. To finish your tube packaging with a unique look and feel, we master high-quality printing and decoration options.

PE
PE tubes with mono-layer, 2-layers, or 3-layers are seamlessly extruded from polyethylene. We use PE-HD (High-Density Polyethylene), PE-LD (Low-Density Polyethylene), PE-LLD (Linear Low-Density Polyethylene), or a combination of the above to achieve the desired feel. Mono-layer plastic tubes are ideal for products that do not have specific requirements concerning barriers.
COEX
Co-extruded tubes are seamless PE tubes with up to five layers, also called multi-layer tubes. They usually come with a barrier layer made of EVOH and/or sandwiched PCR material. They protect well against oxygen, gases, solvents, and oils. Compared to PE mono-layer tubes, COEX tubes with EVOH are less permeable and more resistant to chemicals, which fits well with more demanding formulas.
PBL
Plastic-Barrier-Laminated tubes consist of a thin-walled multi-layer flat substrate made of blown film, extruded film, or adhesive film laminates with up to 7 layers. The barrier used is usually EVOH. Our laminate tubes have an overlapping seam. When squeezed, they collapse. They are the right good choice for small-budget products in the sectors of DIY, arts and colors, or mass toiletries.
SPRINGTUBE
Springtube® is a premium tube for beauty and healthcare brands that want to stand out. It combines our 7-layer flat extrusion technology with the latest 360° decorative options such as low migration digital printing, flexographic printing, and foiling. With no gap or overlap by design! It offers unlimited customization possibilities – down to 1 singular tube with variable data printing or with a fully colored body. Springtubes keep their shape and are broadly compatible with beauty and health products thanks to their barrier layer. From every component to the final tube; fully made in-house.

Keep e-commerce products safe
Instead of letting e-commerce logistics vendors secure closures by the addition of BOPP tape – take the relaxed way: Our flip top closures opening force is strictly controlled to prevent untimely opening. For maximum protection, use our climate controlled in house shrink sleeve capabilities.
Tube filling and sealing advice
We regularly exchange with manufacturers of tube filling and sealing machines. In our database, we have stored the system-specific parameters for the optimal end-welding of all tube materials.
