The application of tube packaging in the oral care industry
In today’s pursuit of health and beauty, oral care has long become an indispensable part of People’s Daily lives. Behind the dazzling array of oral care products, tube packaging, with its unique advantages, firmly holds the position of a core packaging form. As a professional supplier of hose filling and sealing equipment, we are well aware of the in-depth application of hose packaging in this field. Today, let’s take a look at the wide range of application scenarios of tube packaging in the oral care industry.
Why is tube packaging so favored by the oral care industry?
1、Precise quantitative use is convenient
The hose is easy to squeeze and can precisely control the amount used each time, avoiding waste.
2、Strong sealing performance ensures quality and freshness
Good tail sealing technology can effectively isolate air, moisture and contaminants, protect the active ingredients and flavor of the paste/gel, and extend the shelf life of the product.
3、Strong protective
Effectively block light, especially opaque or aluminum-plastic composite hoses, to prevent the contents from deteriorating due to light exposure.
4、Good portability
It is of moderate size and light weight, making it very suitable for daily use and carrying during travel.
5、The design is flexible and has a large information carrying capacity
The surface of the hose can be exquisitely printed, clearly displaying brand information, product efficacy, ingredient descriptions, usage methods and regulatory requirements, etc.
6、High cost-effectiveness
Compared with hard containers, hoses usually have more advantages in terms of materials and production costs, especially in large-scale production.
Application examples of tube packaging in the Oral care industry
I.Toothpaste
The most classic and most extensive application! Whether it is common fluoride toothpaste, whitening toothpaste, anti-allergy toothpaste, herbal toothpaste or children’s toothpaste, the vast majority are packaged in tubes.
Equipment requirements: Toothpaste filling has certain requirements for precision and hygiene. Our hose filling and tail sealing machine can achieve high-precision metering filling, as well as firm and reliable internal heat tail sealing or folding tail sealing. The production line also needs to adapt to the filling of pastes of different viscosities.
II.Dental professional products
Equipment requirements: Such products are usually of high value and have stricter requirements for filling accuracy, the cleanliness of the production environment (GMP requirements), as well as the sealing and light-blocking properties of the packaging. Our equipment can meet the filling and sealing requirements of these standards.
III.Oral Ulcer ointment
Oral ulcer ointment/gel is a kind of ointment or gel used to relieve the pain of oral ulcers and promote healing. It is packaged in a soft tube for convenient and precise application on the affected area.
Equipment requirements: Similar to dental professional products, demanding precision, cleanliness and sealing. The design of the pipe opening is usually small and pointed.
IV.Children’s oral care products
Equipment requirements: In addition to the basic filling and tail sealing functions, the production equipment also needs to adapt to smaller-sized and more diverse shapes of hoses.
