Custom Paper Tube Packaging Manufacturer in China
ZHY Packing supplies custom paper tubes from Xiamen. Compare wraps, openings and presentation, then send dimensions and artwork for quotation.
Paper tube presentations to compare
Choose the appearance and opening around your product. The range above describes the overall tube offer; the pictured presentations provide references for the size, wrap and lid in your own brief.
Kraft paper tubes
An unprinted kraft-coloured appearance with visible lid seams. Include the required tube dimensions and paper appearance with the opening and packing requirements.
Cosmetic presentation tubes
Printed outer wraps, separate lids and trim details give a cosmetic pack its presentation. Product diameter, usable tube height and the space around the contents belong in the same specification.
Window paper tubes
A window makes the product view part of the artwork. Define the visible area, window position and label space along with the tube dimensions.
Compare tube details before sample approval
The tube opening, lid joint, wrap edge and printed panels are useful comparison points. Match them to the agreed dimensions and artwork when reviewing your sample.
The printed cosmetic-tube reference shows the body, removable lid and the opening around the product. Compare the lid action and packed-product position with your own sample specification.

Artwork, wrap and finishing
- Identify the printed panels, colours and artwork file or revision.
- Mark the wrap seam, label or barcode position and any window opening.
- Locate the requested finish on the artwork, with a reference for its appearance.
Artwork for repeat orders
Identify the existing artwork revision and describe any change to the product, tube size, printed panels or packing. Keep those changes together in the repeat-order brief.
Cutting dies and printing plates are kept on file and reused at no charge for repeat orders of the same design. Repeat orders of an unchanged design follow the same 15–30 working-day production range after specifications, artwork and sample requirements are confirmed.
