Laminate tubes from Labelprint24 - new in our portfolio

The circle is closed: With laminate tubes from our own production, we can now offer our customers an even wider range of digitally printed packaging materials.

With the commissioning of a production line for the manufacture of laminate tubes from PBL and ABL laminate in Zeithain, we are entering a new product field with enormously high quality requirements and strong competitors. However, there is probably no other packaging manufacturer in the whole of Europe who can supply coordinated labels, folding cartons, package inserts and laminate tubes for packaging a product from a single source and can refer to our know-how in the digital printing of primary and secondary packaging materials.

Labelprint24 manufactures digitally printed laminate tubes made of PBL laminate (Plastic Barrier Laminate) and ABL laminate (Aluminum Barrier Laminate) for creamy, pasty and semi-liquid products, which are perfect for many industries, such as beauty & cosmetics, oral hygiene, food, household and pharmaceutical.

Both types of tubes offer the contents efficient protection against environmental influences and against loss of quality inside. Our laminate tubes have perfectly functioning barrier and hygiene properties, among others against water, water vapor, UV light or oxygen, whereby ABL laminate tubes can even be assigned to the high-barrier segment. This premium segment has barrier properties that were previously mainly attributed to extruded plastic tubes and pure aluminum tubes.

WHAT ARE THE OTHER ADVANTAGES OF LAMINATE TUBES FROM LABELPRINT24?

Fast production and delivery times: The tubes are produced in TOP quality from 1000 pieces (promotional tubes) or 5000 pieces within 3 weeks from print approval.

Many finishes: In addition to matte and glossy coatings that make the printed image even more attractive and protect the surface of the laminate from damage, our laminate tubes can also be finished with metallic foil.

WHY WE PRODUCE LAMINATE TUBES AT ALL?

Growth market tube production: Around 10.5 billion tubes were produced in Europe in 2017 by the member companies of ETMA - the European Tube Manufacturers Association. Laminate tubes accounted for around 37 percent of this, aluminum tubes for 36 percent and plastic tubes for 27 percent. The number of tubes required is rising continuously from year to year.

Laminate tubes are widely used for mass market cosmetic products and dental care products. Other cosmetic products include hair dyes and hair care products, skin care products, shaving cream, soap and various cleaning products. Many cosmetic manufacturers are increasingly replacing expensive aluminum tubes with laminate tubes because they are less expensive, easier to print, and do not leave unsightly crush marks when squeezed by the user. When laminate tubes are squeezed out, less tube content remains in the tube body. Laminate tubes are also being used more and more frequently for food packaging for cost reasons. All these advantages point to stable and solid growth of the laminate tube market.

The plastic tube - production and properties

Tubes are made of different materials. Each material has specific properties, advantages and disadvantages. In order to decide on the optimum tube material, the subsequent intended use and the properties of the respective filling material are the decisive factors.
