The Hoffmann Neopac PaperX Tube series utilizes thin-walled 300 micron fiber-based laminate with 80% paper content to reduce plastic materials use and overall carbon footprint. Suitable for organic and natural personal care and cosmetic products, the next-generation eco-friendly tube contains 46% less plastics than conventional tubes, leading to a 24% drop in CO2 emissions.
Potential applications for Neopac’s new PaperX Tube include sun care lotions, body and face care creams, and toothpaste. Available with flip-top closures, the tube is offered in diameters ranging from 35 to 50 mm, and can house products in volumes from 40 to 250 ml. The PaperX tube can be easily filled and sealed on standard tube filling lines.
Featuring soft texture and tactile qualities, the PaperX tube provides an inviting experience for consumers both at the point of purchase and at home. For aesthetics, Neopac’s high-resolution digital and flexo printing technologies can be used to achieve ornate branded designs. To customize tube artwork, variable data printing also can be utilized, providing options for special promotions.
“The PaperX Tubes enable an ultra-sustainable image and sensory packaging experience for products, showcasing a brand’s corporate responsibility to increasingly environmentally-conscious consumers,” says Mark Aegler, CEO of Hoffmann Neopac Group Switzerland. “Neopac is committed to building a sustainable future by providing innovative, environmentally friendly packaging solutions which are produced with renewable energy.”
