Our Custom cylindrical cardboard packaging shaker tubes are engineered for cross-industry needs—from food brands to craft suppliers—blending scenario-specific functionality, full-cycle customization, and eco-conscious design to solve pain points like content leakage, freshness loss, and generic packaging that fails to stand out.
1. Food-Safe & Eco-Durable Material Foundation
Crafted from FSC-certified, thickened cardboard (2–3mm thickness, upgradeable to 4mm for heavy-content use), the tubes balance safety, sturdiness, and sustainability:
Multi-Scenario Safety Compliance: For food use (spices, sugar, snack mixes), inner liners are food-grade PE or unbleached kraft paper—meeting FDA, EU 10/2011, and JAS standards to block moisture, oil, and odors; for non-food use (craft glitter, small beads), optional recycled cardboard reduces environmental impact without compromising strength.
Structural Reliability: Rigid cylindrical shape resists deformation during stacking or shipping, avoiding content clumping (e.g., powdered spices) or breakage (e.g., small craft components); smooth interior walls prevent content snagging or residue buildup, ensuring easy pouring.
Eco-Credentials: 100% recyclable cardboard, with optional 70% post-consumer recycled content—aligns with consumer demand for sustainable packaging, especially for food brands targeting eco-conscious shoppers.
2. Scenario-Specific Functional Design
Every detail is optimized to match the unique needs of different content types:
Customizable Shaker Tops: The core functional feature—tailor top designs to content:
Fine Perforations (1–2mm): For spices (cinnamon, paprika), sugar, or protein powder—controls even pouring, prevents clogs.
Wide Slits (3–5mm): For snack mixes (trail mix, cereal puffs), nuts, or small craft beads—allows easy dispensing without crushing.
Sealable Options: Add flip-top lids (with secure snaps) or peel-off seals (for tamper-proofing, critical for food products)—ensures freshness stays locked in until first use.
Size Flexibility: Diameters range from 4–12cm, heights from 8–25cm—fit 50g–500g content:
Small tubes (4×8cm): Ideal for single-serve spices, sample-sized snacks, or craft glitter packs.
Medium tubes (6×15cm): Perfect for standard spice jars (100–200g), snack mixes, or bead sets.
Large tubes (10×25cm): Suited for bulk spices (300–500g), family-sized snacks, or large craft supplies.
Practical Add-Ons: Optional clear PET windows (to showcase content color/ texture), date/batch code panels (for food traceability), or grip strips (on tube exteriors for easy holding)—enhance usability without adding complexity.
3. Brand-Centric Customization: Turn Tubes into Brand Assets
Customization is tailored to highlight brand identity while fitting use scenarios:
Print & Finish: Use soy-based, low-VOC inks for full-color designs—print logos, content labels (e.g., “Organic Cumin”), usage instructions (e.g., “Shake lightly”), or seasonal motifs (e.g., holiday spice blends). Choose finishes:
Matte: For a natural, artisanal look (ideal for organic spices, handcrafted snacks).
Glossy: For vibrant colors (great for kids’ snacks, bold craft supplies).
Metallic Foil: Add gold/silver accents to logos or text (perfect for premium spices, giftable craft sets).
Shape & Detail Tweaks: Embed brand logos via embossing/debossing (adds tactile appeal), or customize tube bottoms (e.g., flat bottoms for stable stacking, branded stickers for extra recognition)—small details that boost brand recall.
Scenario-Specific Branding: For food tubes, print ingredient lists or “non-GMO” claims; for craft tubes, add project ideas (e.g., “Use for jewelry making”)—turn packaging into a marketing tool that adds value for customers.
4. Wholesale & Service Support for Cross-Industry Clients
Bulk Order Flexibility: Cater to small artisans (minimum 300 units, ideal for test launches) and large manufacturers (10,000+ units)—tiered pricing offers 12–35% cost savings for high-volume orders, reducing per-unit costs regardless of industry.
Fast Turnaround: Standard orders ship in 7–10 business days; rush production (3–5 days) is available for peak seasons (e.g., holiday spice gifting, back-to-school craft supplies)—ensures clients meet demand without delays.
Quality Assurance: Each tube undergoes leakage tests (simulate shaking to check for spills), top-fit checks (ensures shaker tops seal tightly), and print quality inspections—free samples are provided to test content fit and customization before bulk orders.
Ideal For
Food Brands: Spices, sugar, salt, snack mixes (trail mix, cereal), protein powder, or tea blends—safe, fresh-keeping packaging that stands out on grocery shelves.
Craft Suppliers: Glitter, beads, small buttons, or sequins—durable, easy-to-dispense tubes for hobbyists or art stores.
Retailers: Curated gift sets (e.g., “Gourmet Spice Kits,” “Craft Starter Packs”)—customizable packaging that elevates gifting appeal.
