What Are Custom Paper Tubes?
Custom tubes are cylindrical packaging containers that are made of multiple layers of paperboard and kraft paper. These layers are bound together with adhesives under high pressure to get a sturdy shape. We are a paper tube gift packaging wholesale provider, so you can give your retail product a luxurious and special look.
You can get custom heights and wall thickness that can suit your product. The core function of this packaging is to protect and preserve the product in a sustainable and appealing way. Depending on the design of the sustainable packaging paper tubes may include a base-and-cap structure or sealed-end formats.
Materials Used In The Manufacturing Of Paper Tubes
The material used in the manufacturing of paper-based tube packaging is obtained from sustainable and FSC-approved resources. Our material is also food-grade, so that you can use it for custom food-grade paper tube packaging. The common materials are:
Kraft Paper
Kraft is the backbone of this packaging due to its high tensile stretch and tear resistance. This material is manufactured with a kraft pulping process to remove lignin and hemicellulose. Kraft paper tube packaging for cosmetics is a very common choice and has a dense structure that can withstand compression and twisting.
Cardboard
Cardboard is a thick and stiff material that is used to serve as the outer shell or body wall of the tubes. This material gives a structure and smoothness to the packaging. You can get precise die cutting due to the high caliper and fine surface of cardboard. For custom cardboard tubes, we often use solid bleached sulphate paper. The overall look of this material is enhanced with lamination and coatings for a final aesthetic look.
Duplex Board
This is a durable material with two-layered paperboard. It is composed of a recycled inner layer and a bleached and coated outer surface. The inner layers work by giving rigidity, and the outer layer gives a smooth surface for printing.
Rigid paper tube packaging custom-made, is widely used for cosmetic and food packaging. Some versions of the tube also have internal lamination to make them moisture and grease-resistant.
Adhesives
Adhesive binds the multiple layers of the paper during the manufacturing of spiral or convolute winding. Convoluted winding is the process in which material is mixed with adhesive to give it the shape of a tube. We use the following types of adhesives for eco-friendly cardboard paper tubes:
- Water-based glues
- Starch-based adhesives
- Polyvinyl acetate
The selection of adhesives is done considering the GSM of the materials and the level of humidity resistance required. The proper selection of adhesives makes sure that you are getting resistant and uniformly bonded layers. Most of our adhesives are:
- Non-toxic
- Eco-safe
- Fast-drying
So if you need durable packaging without the fear of toxin contamination, Premium Custom Boxes is the best place.
Foil Or Liner Materials
Several edible items need moisture and oxygen-resistant packaging, so internally lined tubes are used. Foil and plastic-based liners are used to make luxury paper tube packaging resistant to unfavourable elements. Some of the line options are:
- Aluminium Foil Liners
- Polyethylene Liners
- Wax-Coated or Laminated Liners
Printing Techniques For High-Definition Graphics
If you want to promote your brand, then custom-printed paper tube packaging with a logo is the best option. These boxes are printed via high-end and advanced processes that make sure that the smallest detail of the design remains visible and defined. Some of the options that we use for printing are as follows:
Offset Printing
Offset printing gives high-definition graphics and precise colour accuracy to kraft and cardboard paper tubes. This printing method works on the principle of oil and water repulsion, where the image is first transferred to a metal plate, to a rubber blanket and then to the paper surface. Offset is useful for your brand because it gives smooth gradients and consistent tones that are ideal for intricate designs. Offset printing gives:
- Detailed logos
- Premium branding
- Bond well with paperboard and duplex surface
- Supports a wide color range
- Accurate brand representation.
- Best for medium to large production runs
Flexographic Printing
This method uses flexible plates and fast-drying inks for large-scale and continuous printing. Flexography printing uses an anilox roller on the plate and then onto the substrate. It is highly compatible with kraft paper tubes and coated boards. Flexo printing excels in:
- Simple designs and logos
- Solid color backgrounds
- Offering speed and cost efficiency
- Has minimal setup waste
- It is a balance between affordability and visual impact.
Printing Enhancement Techniques
We also use several techniques to give you luxury custom paper tube boxes. Printing enhancement techniques are used to make the design visually striking and tactile. We have several finishing enhancements that include:
- Embossing
- Debossing
- Hot Foil Stamping
- Spot UV Coating
- Metallic Inks
From small business custom paper tubes to large ones, we have options for all. These enhancements enhance the aesthetic value of tubes and elevate the perceived value of your product. We help you turn a simple packaging into a brand statement to make you a prominent company.
Lid Options
To cover the tubes, different types of lids are available based on the material. Large to small paper tubes all need lids to make sure that the product remains fully protected and presentable. For this, we have the following options:
Paperboard Lids
These lids are manufactured with the same material as the tube body. Paperboard lids ensure a uniform and sustainable appearance. These lids are strong and lightweight to make sure your products remain fully protected and presentable.
- Cardboard Paper Tubes
- Eco-Friendly Paper Tube
- Kraft Paper Candle Tubes
Metal Lids
Metal lids are our premium editions that are manufactured with aluminum and tinplate. These lids add durability and strength to give a premium finish. Our paper tube boxes wholesale services include these lids when brands need an airtight and tamper-resistant seal.
- Vape Cartridge Paper Tube
- Black Paper Candle Tubes
- Apparel Paper Tubes

Plastic Lids
Polypropylene and polyethylene are used to manufacture these plastic lids. They also give a tight seal and secure the product from air and moisture. Supplements and cosmetic products are packed in plastic-lid tubes for protection and visibility.
