DESIGNED AROUND THE PRODUCT
What makes this format work.
For products suited to a round format and brands looking for a distinctive shelf profile and a continuous printed surface.
01 / KEY DETAIL
Plan the diameter
Work from the packed product and any liner or support, not the exterior size alone.
02 / KEY DETAIL
Wrap the artwork
Consider the label seam, reading direction and alignment with the lid.
03 / KEY DETAIL
Refine the closing fit
Check the opening force, lid engagement and usable internal space on a sample.
SPECIFY WITH CONFIDENCE
The details behind your box.
Use this guide to prepare your brief. These are options for discussion, not a fixed stock specification.
| Construction | Review the body, lid, neck and closure fit together. Suitable dimensions and closure options depend on the product and tube construction. |
|---|---|
| Material | Paper tube body with a printed or specialty-paper wrap. Discuss wall thickness, liner and end construction for the application. |
| Dimensions & internal fit | Specify internal diameter and usable internal height. Include headspace, liner thickness and any internal product support. |
| Printing & finish | Your artwork and colors, with finishing options reviewed for the chosen material. Confirm the print area, coating, foil or embossing on the proof or sample. |
| Inserts | Dividers and fitted inserts can be discussed against product dimensions, weight and the required layout. |
| Packing & delivery | Tubes usually ship in their finished shape. Confirm outer carton count and protection against rubbing or crushing in transport. |
| Minimum quantity | Quoted per size, construction and artwork. Send your target quantity per design for confirmation. |
| Samples & timing | Agree the sample type, approval stages, production schedule and shipping arrangement with your project quotation. |
Design consideration: Do not assume a paper tube is food-safe, airtight, leakproof or moisture-resistant. Any such requirement needs a specific material and performance review.
MAKE IT UNMISTAKABLY YOURS
Structure. Print. Finish. Fit.
For custom printed paper tubes, the strongest result comes from coordinating the construction and artwork early. Share a product photo, dimensions and design reference so the material and print process can be considered together.
01 / Artwork
Bring your logo, brand colors and panel artwork. Check orientation, seams, folds and safe areas against the agreed dieline.
02 / Finishing
Discuss matte or gloss coatings, foil, embossing and spot UV where suitable. Check a sample for the intended appearance and feel.
03 / Interior
Consider product placement, dividers, inserts and ease of removal. Confirm the internal fit with the complete product pack.

FROM FIRST IDEA TO APPROVAL
A clear path to production.
01
Share the brief
Send product dimensions, box type, quantity per design and delivery destination.
02
Review the specification
Compare materials, construction, print and finish with the project quotation.
03
Approve the sample
Agree on a proof or sample and resolve fit, artwork and closing details.

Confirm production timing, packing method and shipping before bulk manufacture.
Include your target arrival date in the brief. Sampling, approvals and transport are separate parts of the schedule.
BEFORE YOU ORDER
Questions worth asking.
Can a paper tube hold food, liquids or scented products?
Tell us the exact contents and required barrier properties. Food contact, liquids, oils and fragrances need a specific liner and suitability review. A standard printed paper tube should not be treated as an approved direct-contact or leakproof container.
What is the minimum order quantity?
Minimum quantities vary by construction, dimensions, material and printing. Send your target quantity for each design and size so the order can be quoted accurately.
Can I see a sample before production?
Ask which sample type suits your project: a blank structural sample, printed proof or finished sample may answer different questions. Confirm cost, timing and approval requirements before proceeding.
What do you need for an accurate quote?
Include the box type, internal dimensions with units, product weight, quantity per design, artwork reference, finishing, insert requirements and destination. Tell us which details are still undecided.
Can you guarantee a delivery date now?
A reliable schedule needs a confirmed specification, quantity, approval plan and delivery destination. Discuss your target date before ordering; production and shipping timing must be confirmed for the actual project.
