A first-of-its-kind eco-friendly paper based tubes– KRAFTIKA is the latest entrant from FlexiTubes which has been created for a positive impact on the environment as well as consumers by reducing the use of plastic at source.
KRAFTIKA tube uses moisture-resistant kraft paper sandwiched between layers of plastic as the body of the tube enabling reduction of plastic by almost 50% to 70% based on the application and tube diameters. It makes use of paper instead. Virgin kraft paper used for the tubes has low cobb value (low moisture absorption) and high burst value (tube integrity). The paper is also FSC certified. It provides stiffness to the body of the tube and allows for excellent bounce-back properties. It also prevents collapsing of the tube even after continuous use and reduction of the contents. KRAFTIKA tube has all the properties and features of FlexiTubes including reverse printed high-end graphics and barrier. Additionally, the natural look of kraft paper provides a very earthy look to the tube.
The tubes are available both in Plastic Barrier Laminates (PBL) and Aluminum Barrier Laminates (ABL) structures for varied applications like Oral Care, Cosmetics including face wash, gels, cream etc.
