Make That First Impression A Lasting One With Our Eye-catching Printing Techniques
After you have selected the right paper material for your cardboard tube packaging, it’s time to consider what printing technique best suits your design. At uCan-Packaging, we offer numerous different printing techniques to customize your cardboard packaging. Each of these printing techniques brings along its own unique appearance that helps to make your product stand out from the crowd.
Ordinary Paper Print
The first and most commonly used customization technique for our cardboard tube packaging is the ordinary paper print. If you’re looking for a simple, smooth, and colorful paper tube with a no-nonsense design, this printing technique is perfect for you. Our high-quality paper print can print any type of ordinary colors, shades, and gradients with both a shiny and matte finish.

UV Printing
If you’re looking for a standard and smoothly printed cardboard tube but are in the need of a higher-quality and more vibrant finish, UV printing is worth your consideration. In terms of capabilities, UV print offers pretty much the same options as ordinary paper print. The main difference, however, lies in the fact that UV print offers a much higher print quality. As a result, it’s capable of printing not only quicker but also in better contrast with more vibrant and brighter colors while maintaining print consistency. UV print is furthermore more sustainable compared to ordinary print. This customization technique is perfect for the mass production of high-quality paper packaging.
Hot Stamping
For those of you who are looking for a way to make your cardboard tube packaging shine and catch the eye, hot stamping is the way to go! Although hot stamping is most commonly used to add a shiny and eye-catching silver or gold touch to a paper tube, it is possible to use this printing technique with any type of color. The shiny and flashy effect created by hot stamping truly makes for a standout cardboard packaging. With a hot-stamped logo on your paper tube, you can be guaranteed that your product stands out from the crowd.
Embossing & Debossing
No matter what type of packaging material you’re using, customization through embossing or debossing always is a classic. The embossing and debossing processes allow you to add a truly unique and 3D touch to your cardboard tubes. It is furthermore possible to combine these printing techniques with ordinary print, UV print, and even hot stamp to add a colorful finish to your embossed or debossed design. This customization method offers a great way to add a true wow factor to your packaging. With an embossed or debossed cardboard tube, you can be guaranteed that your product packaging gets noticed on the shelves!
Rugged Matte Print
Are you looking for a rough customization method that adds a rugged finish to your cardboard tube packaging? If so, this printing method offers a perfect solution. Best used in combination with craft paper or sandpaper, this printing method adds a truly eye-catching rugged finish to your cardboard tubes. With this printing technique, we can print every standard color as well as gradients in a matte tone. For a truly unique appearance, it can even be combined with embossing or debossing. If you’re ready to take your packaging design to the next level, rugged matte print certainly is worth your consideration!
Different Lids and Bottoms For Your Cardboard Tubes
True beauty lies in the details, this also counts for our cardboard tube packaging. This is why, besides offering a range of printing techniques, we also offer numerous different top and bottom closures that will offer a perfect finishing touch to your custom-made tube packaging.
Besides the standard cardboard slipcovers, we offer the choice from a range of different closures. These include lug lids, aluminum coffee seals and air-tight metal plug lids, metal pull lids, and even lids made from wood, bamboo, and cork! We furthermore offer the possibility to design custom lids in different shapes and made from different materials.

We’ll make sure that the bottom of your tube perfectly matches the cap and overall design; giving the entire tube a unique and standout finish that will take your product branding to a whole new level!
Internal Coatings And Customization
Besides the exterior design of your cardboard tube packaging, we furthermore offer the possibility to add a colorful finish to the interior of the tubes. Besides the standard cardboard interior, it’s possible to give it a plain white, shiny white, or shiny silver finish. We offer both printed paper and aluminum foil interiors. Although these are our standard internal finishes, we naturally also offer the possibility to use any type of custom color or even a detailed multi-color design to customize your tube’s interior. All our interior finishes are food-safe regardless of whether it’s printed or not. Simply let us know your requirements for the interior of your paper tube packaging, and we’ll handle your request accordingly.
Custom Inserts For A Perfect Product Fit

If you require a custom insert inside of the cardboard tube packaging to make your product fit snugly inside, we’re happy to help. We offer the choice between plastic, foam, and cardboard inserts that are custom-produced to fit your product.
