With the enhancement of global environmental awareness and consumers' pursuit of sustainable development, traditional plastic packaging is undergoing a revolutionary transformation. In the field of personal care, paper tube packaging, with its environmentally friendly attributes and innovative design, is rapidly becoming the ideal packaging solution for products such as lipsticks and deodorants.

1.Market Demand and Product Classification of Paper Tube Packaging

According to Statista data, the global cosmetics packaging market is expected to exceed 34 billion US dollars in 2025, with the proportion of eco-friendly packaging projected to increase to 28%.  This trend has directly driven the market demand for paperboard lip balm tubes and paper deodorant tubes.

1.Lipstick tube series

Traditional plastic lipstick tubes are being replaced by eco-friendly paper tube packaging, which uses food-grade cardboard and plant-based coating technology to ensure product safety while achieving 100% recyclability.

The bulk chapstick tubes service provides enterprises with customized orders starting from 5,000 pieces, and supports brand LOGO hot stamping and color customization.

2. Multi-functional push-type container

The push up tubes adopt a spiral paper tube structure and are suitable for products such as solid creams and concealers. Their patented snap-fit design enables precise dosage control.

The newly developed three-layer composite paper tube, with a degradable moisture-proof film coated on the inner wall, has successfully broken through the application limitations of paper packaging in paste products.

2.Core Advantages of Paper Tube Packaging

1. The environmental benefits are remarkable

Compared with plastic packaging, the carbon footprint of paper packaging tubes is reduced by 62%, and a single 30g paper tube only generates 2.3g of carbon dioxide emissions. The eco-friendly paper tube packaging made of FSC-certified paper can achieve closed-loop recycling even more.

2. Cost control optimization

The purchase price of wholesale cardboard tubes is 15-20% lower than that of plastic packaging, and it is especially suitable for brands with an annual usage of more than 100,000 pieces

The modular design reduces the cost of packaging line transformation by 40%, eliminating the need to replace the existing filling equipment

3. Brand value enhancement

The case of the British beauty brand Lush shows that after switching to paper tube packaging, the product's premium capacity increased by 22% and consumer awareness rose by 37%. The unique paper texture and custom printing effect have become the new brand recognition elements.

3.Technological Innovation and Industry Breakthroughs

1. Waterproof treatment technology

By adopting nanocellulose coating technology, the waterproof performance of the paper tube reaches IPX4 level, and it can withstand environmental tests ranging from -20℃ to 50℃.

2. Structural innovation

The foldable paper tube design reduces the transportation volume by up to 60%

The magnetic sealing device enhances the convenience of use

Embedded QR code tags enable product traceability

3. Circular economy model

Some manufacturers have launched a "packaging recycling program". Consumers can exchange 10 empty tubes they return for new products, which has pushed the packaging reuse rate to 83%.

Conclusion

For brands, investing in paper tube packaging is not only a choice to fulfill environmental responsibilities, but also a strategic layout to seize the emerging consumer market.
