Technical Data and Cardboard Material:
Customers can choose the wall thickness from 0.75 mm to 2.5 mm (0.03” to 0.1”) depending on the product’s weight and type. The material typically ranges from 12 pt to 24 pt thickness per layer. Please specify the inner diameter, wall thickness, and overall length to ensure dimensional accuracy. The cap design offers a precise fit, preventing air from entering when the tube is closed.
We use high-strength adhesives to bond 3 – 20 layers of paper with a density of 0.5 – 0.8 cm³. The entire structure is made from paper-based material, recyclable or compostable according to customer requirements. Water-based/soy-wax is coated inside the tubes to protect your product and help it last longer. Soy inks are used for printing that are safe for the environment and easy to remove during recycling.

What Will You Create?
Custom printed paper tubes with 100% paper based mono-material.
Earthycores paper tubes are inner coated with water/soy-wax to protect products inside. For outer we use soy ink in order to make your packaging 100% environment friendly.
Can I get a custom sample before ordering from you?
The answer is YES! We can custom make sample based on your specification and design with a sampling charge. The charge will be refundable if bulk order is confirmed.
Are you paper tubes food safe?
Our paper tubes can be safe for dry goods that don't require shelf-life sustainability. Food grade paper is required for direct food contact. But we still recommend putting the product in a sealed bag and using the tubes as secondary outer packaging.
Aluminum foil and PE lining can be applied to create a food-safe, oil-resistant inner barrier. Those tubes are generally sealed after filling to make them air-tight. Sealing can be done using metal discs, which requires specialized equipment, or shrink wrapping.
Are your tubes sustainable? Recyclable or compostable?
Yes all of our paper tubes are either recyclable or compostable depending on your requirement. They are made of 100% virgin pulp paper certified FSC. At BioPaperTubes we are always exploring different natural materials, like soy inks, compostable lamination and greaseproof paper inner lining for solid cosmetics products.
