Changing designs paired with an ongoing number on a cosmetic tube. Absolutely no problem. You think it, we print it.

These 20ml cosmetic tubes have even more than those two features. Take a close look at the grey line right below the red, ongoing number. Believe it or not, this is a 1-point small text printed in bold or regular style. Besides that the colorful lines are called a “guilloche“, which is used mainly as a security feature on money.

On the tube itself. It is a standard, coextruded PE tube without any coating on it. The filling is a sunscreen as these were designed as a giveaway, showing what can be done with DIGITRAN digital heat transfers.

The decoration itself was done on a fully automatic DIGITRAN TRT heat transfer machine, which comes with an integrated pretreatment. The transfers used were our all-time favorite, which can be used for almost any product. The key is that those tubes were printed and decorated back to back! No tooling, no downtime! Thinking ahead, this means that you can mix and match artworks, as long as they are for the same size product!
Of course this technology can be used to decorate all kinds of cosmetic tubes from as small as 6ml lip balms to 200ml shower gels.
