All of our ready-made tubes are designed to be reusable, recyclable, and biodegradable. They are made out of 100% paper and contain no plastic whatsoever. We use virgin paper pulp and water-based glue.
For custom-made tubes, we try to be as eco-conscious as possible, while keeping functionality in mind. If you’re using tubes as secondary packaging and want to reduce your environmental impact, we suggest uncoated kraft or white paper with printing and varnish.
If you have a food or cosmetics based product, or something that requires direct contact with our tubes, it’s almost impossible to completely eliminate plastic from the inner liner that ensures shelf life and oil-resistance. With that said, we are always exploring different natural materials, like vegetable inks, PLA lamination, and wax paper inner lining for solid cosmetics products. We always strive to be as eco-friendly as possible and will work with you to ensure your tube packaging has the smallest ecological footprint.
