Effect Coatings for Laminate Tubes

Optical and haptic effects that inspire

Laminate tubes combine the advantages of aluminum and polyethylene tubes thanks to the latest manufacturing technology – the outstanding barrier properties of aluminum tubes meet the high-quality finishing options of polyethylene tubes. They are therefore particularly suitable for packaging in the cosmetics, pharmaceutical and food industries. A minimized weld seam supports the high-quality appearance of a laminate tube, which is also becoming increasingly popular with brand owners as a type of packaging.

Our effect coatings for laminate tubes meet all current regulations and offer brand owners a wide range of options for presenting their products impressively at the point of sale.
