Laminate Tubes
Laminate tubes combine the benefit of having aluminum tube properties with the look and feel of plastic. You’re not only getting one choice but two, with plastic or aluminum base! The “New Generation” of laminate tubes uses the most modern technology to produce a tube with the industry’s most aesthetic minimal seam, providing maximum space for graphics and brand decoration, along with a sustainable packaging option for your needs.
Laminate material virtually prevents the transfer of light, air, and moisture. Montebello also offers a wide variety of graphics and an assortment of sizes and styles. We even have outstanding capabilities that allow us to make a tube as small as 1/2 inch (12.7mm) in diameter!
The Laminate Process
Laminate tubes begin as flat web stock, manufactured by the leading global suppliers. The tube is then printed to your exact specifications on the finest quality letterpress or rotogravure equipment. The printed web is formed into a tubular shape and cut to the desired length to become a “sleeve.” It is then “headed” and joined with a molded shoulder.
We can add a tamper-evident sealed neck membrane for product protection. We complete the process by capping the tube and then inspecting and packaging it; this is a completely integrated system, with the entire package assembled in line. Now your sustainable packaging laminate tube is ready.
