In the $180B global cosmetics market, customizable tubes dominate 67% of skincare packaging.Cosmetic tubes are widely used in cleansers, eye creams, primers, sunscreens and other products due to their lightness, good sealing and portability. This article will give you a comprehensive understanding of tube packaging from three aspects: the manufacturing process of tubes, surface treatment technology and common types of matching caps. Manufacturing Process of Skin Care Tubes Skin care tubes are usually made of PE (polyethylene) plastic, aluminum foil, plastic film and other materials.They are made into sheets by co-extrusion and compounding, and then pressed into tubular containers by a special tube making machine. The production process of tubes mainly includes: extrusion molding → cutting → printing → sealing → capping. Each step needs to be precisely controlled to ensure aesthetics and sealing. According to product type and usage requirements, they can be divided i...

 In daily cleaning products such as shampoo, shower gel and conditioner, PET (polyethylene terephthalate) bottles stand out from many plastic products and become the main choice in the market due to their excellent transparency, outstanding physical properties, mature recycling system and flexible processing technology. This time we will introduce PET bottles as a plastic container from three aspects: functional advantages, processing technology and structural design innovation.   1. Functional advantages of PET bottles PET bottles have several key advantages in the packaging of cleaning products: Lightweight and shatterproof: PET is durable and not easy to break even if it falls in a humid environment such as the bathroom, ensuring safe use. Compared with glass bottles, it greatly reduces transportation costs and carbon dioxide emissions. It can effectively resist impact during transportation, storage and use, and reduce the risk of breakage and leakage. High transparency: P...

In the beauty and personal care industry, aluminum hoses have gradually become a friendly choice for many brands due to their excellent functionality, environmental friendliness and high-quality texture. Here we will help brands and buyers understand the cost-effective packaging solutions of aluminum tubes from three aspects: functional advantages, manufacturing processes and product structure design. 1. The main functions and advantages of aluminum tubes Strong barrier properties：Aluminum naturally has good light-blocking and oxygen-blocking properties. The molecular structure of aluminum can block 99% of ultraviolet rays, oxygen and water vapor, effectively protecting active ingredients (such as VC, retinol) from oxidation and deterioration, extending the shelf life. It is particularly suitable for creams, gels, essences and other products that are easily affected by air. Good extrudability：The hose has excellent elasticity and controllable resilience, which can accurately control th...

In the skin care industry, glass bottle packaging is widely used in high-value-added products such as essences, creams, lotions, and facial oils due to its high-end texture, excellent chemical stability (strong barrier properties and good sealing properties) and environmentally friendly properties. These characteristics make it an ideal choice for enhancing product image and ensuring quality. However, brands or buyers often face a series of specific problems in the process of transporting glass packaging materials, which may affect the final product experience and brand image. Problem manifestations: 1. During the process of receiving, transporting (especially international transport) or filling, the bottle body is broken, shattered, cracked, corners are broken, and the edge of the bottle mouth is broken. 2. It leads to high loss rate, affecting cost and product availability. Main reasons: 1. Insufficient bottle material and strength: The glass is too brittle, and high borosilicate gla...

Contents change color or evaporate? Is the barrier property of the glass bottle not good enough? Many customers have reported problems such as discoloration, abnormal odor, and decreased concentration of skin care products during product sales or use. This is especially true for skin care formulas containing essential oils, active ingredients, or natural plant extracts. In other words, during product sales or daily use, consumers often report that skin care products have changed color; some products emit abnormal odors, which not only affects the user experience, but may also have an adverse effect on skin health; and some customers have found that the concentration has decreased after use, which undoubtedly reduces the effectiveness of the product.   Cause analysis These problems are often closely related to the poor light-blocking ability and airtightness of glass bottles. Although transparent glass has a good visual effect, it is easy for external factors such as ultraviolet ra...
