Berlin Packaging expands its presence in EMEA with the acquisition of BlueSky.
Aluminium Rigid Tube, 18mm diameter, with customisable lengths. A compact, durable packaging solution for tablets, effervescent tablets and confectionery such as mints.
The Aluminium Rigid Tube, 18mm diameter, is a compact packaging solution designed to safeguard tablets, effervescent tablets and confectionery such as mints. Unlike collapsible aluminium tubes, which are squeezable and designed for semi-solid or liquid products, this rigid tube has solid walls that maintain their shape, acting as a protective capsule for its contents.
At 18mm diameter, this tube sits at the compact end of BlueSky’s rigid tube range, well suited to effervescent tablets and single-serving supplement formats. Lengths can be customised to accommodate different product sizes and quantities, giving brands flexibility to match the tube to their specific tablet count or dosage requirements.
Made from premium aluminium, the tube offers a lightweight yet durable construction, keeping contents secure and intact while maintaining a sleek, professional appearance. All BlueSky tubes feature internal linings that protect the formulation from any direct contact with the aluminium, ensuring compatibility and stability across a range of tablet and confectionery products.
Aluminium is infinitely recyclable without loss of quality, giving brands a sustainable packaging choice. BlueSky offers customisation options for this format, including printing, labelling and bespoke finishes — contact BlueSky to discuss specific branding requirements.
