Lamitubes - Complete Product Range
Tubes made from Swiss Technology
Skypack manufacturers laminated tubes on fully automatic Swiss made machines.

Lamitubes – ABL: Aluminum Foil based Lamitube
The multilayered tube made from laminates with aluminium foil barrier combine the advantages of traditional metal & plastic tubes.
These tubes are made from the laminates the structure of which is described below:
The ABL tubes give good “collapsible” effect (shown in the picture below) which is sometimes desired. Today, ABL laminate tubes are not only used for toothpaste, but also increasingly for Cosmetics, Food, Pharmaceuticals and Industrial Applications.

Plastic Based tubes are newer version of tubes made from material based on EVOH. EVOH which is widely used in applications requiring good aroma/flavor, Gas and Moisture barrier is gaining fast as a replacement for the Aluminum based tubes. Tubes made for this are “all plastic” so it is good complement for ointments which react with Aluminum. It is also possible to made transparent tubes using this material.
