Tubes and Cylinder Packaging Printing

Tube Packaging New 100% Recyclable Powder Shaker Hot Sell

Cylindrical paper tubes fitted with a small hole shaker lid, used for loose powder cosmetics and dry hair products that are dispensed rather than poured. The tubes are wound from white paper, black paper or kraft paper, made from customised 100% recyclable material, and printed by CMYK 4 colour offset. Cosmetic brands and haircare producers use them as a biodegradable alternative to plastic shakers, finished with embossing, UV coating, varnishing, lamination and gold foil.

Key Benefits

What This Product Gives You

  • A sifter shaker lid meters loose powder out instead of dumping it, which is the difference between a usable product and a spill
  • 100% recyclable paper construction replaces the plastic shaker without changing how the customer uses it
  • CMYK 4 colour offset printing reproduces full brand artwork directly on the tube wall
  • White, black and kraft bodies give three shelf looks from the same tube structure
  • Gold foil, embossing and spot UV lift a paper tube to the finish a cosmetic shelf expects
  • The same body serves loose powder, hair shampoo powder and lip formats, so a range shares one pack platform

Problems Solved

What Goes Wrong Without It

  • Open-mouth tubes release too much powder at once and the product is wasted on first use
  • Plastic shakers contradict a brand's recyclable positioning on the same shelf
  • Labels applied to a cylinder wrinkle around the curve, while direct printing does not
  • Uncoated paper marks easily and a powder pack looks used before it is sold
  • Sourcing the body and the shaker lid separately leaves parts that do not fit each other

Comparison

Compared With the Alternatives

AlternativeHow This Compares
Plastic powder shakersPaper tubes are recyclable and take offset printing directly, though plastic tolerates humid bathroom storage better
Open-mouth paper tubesA shaker lid controls dispensing for loose powder, while an open mouth is simpler and cheaper for solid or bulk contents
Metal tins for powderPaper is lighter and cheaper to ship, but a tin resists crushing better in a handbag
Use Guide

Getting the Best Result

  • Send the powder grade with the enquiry so the shaker hole size is set correctly
  • Supply artwork as PDF, AI, PSD or JPEG at 300dpi minimum with fonts outlined
  • Choose kraft for a natural shelf look and white paper where colour accuracy matters most
  • Mark foil, emboss and spot UV areas on separate layers in the artwork
  • Specify lamination where the pack will be handled repeatedly on a retail shelf
  • Store filled tubes upright and dry, since paper bodies absorb moisture
