 A company selling Pink Himalayan Salt approached Custom Paper Tubes to design and manufacture a salt air inhaler. The application required a non-metal container with holes in the ends to allow air flow through a filter cartridge. Die charges for a paper mesh with small holes were prohibitive, leading our design team to suggest plastic netting material which was punched to match the container diameter. The finished product is a telescoping tube with an elegant, non-printed outer wrap that is filled with Himalayan salt. A mouthpiece is then added, allowing patients to inhale air channeled through salt for therapeutic benefits. Read the rest of this entry »

 Custom Paper Tubes has over 30 years of experience designing and manufacturing paper tube based specialty packaging solutions for a wide range of industries from cosmetics and personal care to food and POP displays. Although many of our customers associate Custom Paper Tubes with packaging, the uses for our cardboard tubes are as diverse as our customer base itself. This case study highlights just one of the non-packaging applications for cardboard tubes: storage.
The customer profiled in this case study is a wine connoisseur with a vast collection of wines from many of the world’s finest vineyards. This customer struggled to find standard wine racks to store unusual size wine bottles in his wine cellar because most racks are made to accommodate standard size 750 ml bottles. With minimal space required, paper tube based wine racks can accommodate virtually any size bottle from minis to magnums. Read the rest of this entry »

 Although many of our customers associate Custom Paper Tubes with POP packaging applications, we also manufacture cardboard cores for industrial and commercial purposes. Many of these projects involve creating tubes with specific characteristics such as notches, holes, or special materials. Our manufacturing capabilities allow us produce durable custom cores in a wide variety of sizes, colors and configurations.
This case study features an international geological survey company that needed a strong cardboard core for their sensitive recording paper rolls. The core needed to be durable, color coded red, and have precisely placed slots on either end of the tube to match their machine. Our in-house design specialist incorporated all required features to meet our customer’s needs. The finished product features a spiral wound tube, with a red outer wrap, and two slots to hold the tube securely in place. Read the rest of this entry »

 Phenolic Paper Tubes The aerospace industry is known for critical specifications requiring a high degree of customization. As a result, these companies often struggle to find suitable vendors. These factors led Air Components, a West Coast aircraft parts supplier, to contact Custom Paper Tubes. Custom Paper Tubes specializes in providing tubes that meet critical material and dimensional requirements
Air Components struggled to find a source of custom phenolic paper tubes for an electrical application. Their application called for strong and waterproof paper tubes manufactured to tight tolerances. Cutouts were required for the parts to fit properly and each tube needed a printed part number for proper identification. Our team worked with the customer to design a finished paper tube that was phenolic impregnated for strength and moisture resistance, then notched per their drawing. Our manufacturing processes allow complex parts, such as these, to be produced with precision tolerances and low volumes economically. Read the rest of this entry »
