Mailing tubes are long, cylindrical containers used to safely transport rolled items such as posters, documents, blueprints, and other similar materials. These tubes are typically made of sturdy cardboard or plastic and have caps on both ends to keep the contents secure during shipping.

This packaging provides a convenient and safe way to send rolled items through the mail, as it protects the contents from damage and allows for easy transportation. They are often lightweight and easy to store, making them a practical choice for both businesses and individuals who need to send narrow and cylindrical-shaped items.

Sturdy Poster Tubes

Sturdy poster tubes are one of the most striking packaging supplies out there. A long cylinder made of spiral-wound 3 ply paperboard, their reinforced shape makes them both crush and dent-resistant. They’re ideal for shipping large or important documents, vintage movie posters, equipment components, and other goods.

Available most often in kraft and white colours, their physical uniqueness is unmissable while in transit, making them great for catching the eyes of both repeat and prospective customers. End caps create tight, secure seals at both ends of cardboard tubes, protecting shipments from unexpectedly opening during their travels.

Versatile Cardboard Shipping Tubes

Like other versatile and useful packaging options, cardboard shipping tubes aren’t limited to just a cylinder shape. They’re also offered in formats such as triangle, square, telescopic tubes and more. Each shipping tube is designed to protect various types of objects and components, while still using quality materials and offering the same strength and security as the more common cylindrical type.

They can accommodate long but narrow car parts, blueprints and sensitive documents, even unexpected objects such as fishing rods, baseball bats or glass décor. If you’re looking to ship items that wouldn’t be well served by boxes or mailers, cardboard shipping tubes are a fantastic addition to your packaging strategy.
