Tea and coffee need a package that seals, keeps light out and opens without spilling. GTS builds three-piece tubes with foil or food-grade paper lining, sized to the fill, in full-color print with kraft, foil stamping or spot UV finishes. The metal inner lid option adds a tamper seal for loose leaf and ground coffee.
Structures
- Three-piece: opens shorter and cleaner over loose product.
- Inner lid: tamper seal, and keeps loose product fresh in storage.
- Divided tube with split lid: two blends in one tube, useful for samplers and gift sets.
- Die-cut window: shows the blend without opening the tube.
Options
- Foil or food-grade paper lining. Both are food-grade and both plastic-free.
- Degassing valve: built into the tube for freshly roasted coffee, so the pack releases CO2 without letting oxygen back in.
- SFI paperboard, up to 95% post-consumer content.
- Full-color print, kraft, faux kraft, foil stamping, spot UV.
Best for
- Loose leaf tea, ground and whole bean coffee, sampler and gift sets, subscription programs, private label lines.
