Composite packaging tubes consist of a tube body made from 100% recycled paper, sealed with plastic plugs, metal plugs, or metal ring and plug friction closures. Eye-catching composite tubes add value to your products, improving shelf presence and achieving maximum consumer appeal.
The metal plug end is a food-grade-rated end closure that fits snugly into the interior of the package, providing a tight friction fit. The recyclable metal plug serves to reseal the package after each use and does not require additional equipment post-fill. When compared with other food-grade end closure options, the metal plug is available in smaller quantities, which can serve to reduce overall packaging costs.
