Tube Closures & Protectors

Paper Caps & Discs

Paper caps and discs are versatile tube closure components widely used in various industries, including pyrotechnic, packaging, paint masking. In the pyrotechnic sector, paper caps serve as critical safety features, providing a secure closure for explosive devices and ensuring proper ignition while minimizing the risk of accidental detonation. Meanwhile, paper discs are often used to create barriers or separators within firework shells, helping to control the arrangement of pyrotechnic materials for optimal performance. In paint masking, paper caps and discs are essential for protecting surfaces during painting projects, ensuring clean lines and preventing overspray. Beyond these roles, these lightweight and eco-friendly products are vital in packaging, where they provide seals for jars and bottles, protecting contents from contamination. Their biodegradable nature aligns with increasing consumer demand for sustainable solutions, making paper caps and discs an essential choice for businesses looking to reduce their environmental impact while maintaining functionality and safety.

Metal End Stops

Metal end stops are often used in paper tubes to provide a robust and secure closure, enhancing the durability and protection of the contents inside. These end stops are typically made from materials like aluminum or steel, offering superior strength compared to plastic alternatives. By sealing the ends of the tubes, metal end stops help prevent damage from impact, moisture, and dust, making them ideal for storing or transporting valuable items such as rolled-up artwork, architectural drawings, or industrial materials. Their reliability and added weight also contribute to the overall stability of the packaging, ensuring that the contents remain safe during handling and transit.

Plastic Plugs

Plastic plugs are commonly used in paper tubes to provide a secure closure and enhance product protection. These plugs fit snugly into the ends of the tubes, preventing dust, moisture, and contaminants from entering while also safeguarding the contents during storage and transportation. By sealing the tubes, plastic plugs help maintain the integrity of items such as rolled documents, textiles, or industrial materials.

Seaming Tins

Seaming tins are an effective solution used in paper tubes to create strong, secure closures that enhance product protection and integrity. These tins are typically made from metal and are applied to the ends of paper tubes, providing a tight seal that prevents moisture, dust, and contaminants from entering. By using seaming tins, manufacturers can ensure that the contents, such as rolled documents, textiles, or sensitive materials, are safeguarded during storage and transport. Additionally, the metal construction of seaming tins adds an extra layer of durability, making them ideal for applications where strength and reliability are crucial. This combination of functionality and protection makes seaming tins a valuable choice in various industries that utilize paper tubes.
