Sample printed on drawn / extruded aluminium (tubes, ROPP caps, cigar tubes) 0.2 mm, gloss lamination; style: gifts & souvenirs.
Sample size 47 × 30 × 150 mm.
A seamless extruded aluminium tube: it stays squeezed where you press it and never sucks air back, so ointments, hair colour and oil paint keep from oxidising. Printed offset on a base coat, the folded crimp carries the batch code.

The sample is drawn / extruded aluminium (tubes, ROPP caps, cigar tubes) 0.2 mm with gloss lamination.
An aluminium tube is a monobloc extruded from an aluminium slug, with shoulder and threaded neck formed in one piece and a sealed aluminium membrane that a spike in the cap pierces on first use. Tubes reach the filler with the tail open, are filled from the tail, then the tail is folded two or three times (double or saddle fold) and batch-coded; the squeezed metal stays put and doesn't suck air back.
About 99.5–99.7% pure aluminium with walls of 0.1–0.2 mm; the inside is lacquered with epoxy-phenolic or another lining matched to the product, and the tail may carry a latex band to help it seal. A near-total barrier to light, oxygen and moisture, it suits ointments, hair dye, adhesives, oil paints, mustard and condensed milk.
The body gets a white or coloured base coat, then dry offset print round the body, typically up to 6 colours, under gloss or matt varnish; bare metal can show through clear varnish. No foil or raised print as on plastic tubes, and very fine lines or smooth gradients tend to band in dry offset.
The print file is a rectangle as wide as the circumference (π × diameter, about 94 mm at Ø30) and as tall as the body less the shoulder and 10–15 mm of tail fold; there is no seam, so art wraps continuously. Run main text along the length and leave the tail clear for batch and expiry coding.
An Ø30 tube 150 mm long typically holds about 60–75 ml depending on the tail fold and shoulder; for ointment, hair dye or glue, the filler sets the fill by the declared net weight.
Product name, active ingredient and strength, net weight, registration number and manufacturer; batch and expiry are usually embossed in the tail fold, so leave the tail plain.
A monobloc aluminium tube is a near-total barrier and stays where squeezed, so no air gets back in, ideal for pharma, adhesives and paints; laminate tubes spring back and look good for cosmetics but barrier depends on the layers.
Aluminium recycles repeatedly; squeeze the tube empty and separate the plastic cap as local collection rules say.
Dry offset round the body typically handles up to about 6 colours on a base coat; flat colours and crisp lines look better than photographic tones.
