JAPAN: Paper-Based Tube-Pouch

Toppan Printing has developed the paper tube-pouch, which is shaped like a tube and easy to squeeze like a pouch due to the use of thinner film material (0.1mm of thickness) and a special folded structure.

The paper tube-pouch uses 30% less plastic than the type of laminated tube widely used for toothpaste. The use of Toppan’s proprietary GL BARRIER film on the inner surface ensures the world-class and complete barrier performance required for such items as food and cosmetics. In addition, brands can fully exploit the advantages of paper’s feel and texture to communicate more natural and organic product concepts to consumers.
