Paperboard Shipping Tubes

Cardboard Shipping Tubes

Need to ship something in a tube? Why not use paperboard shipping tubes from PTS? Our highly customizable tubes are perfect for posters and other items that you want to keep secure and damage-free during shipping. Metal or plastic end plugs can be ordered separately with your shipping tubes to secure the ends and provide added wall support to protect the contents inside from damage during shipping.

Customers are often looking for customizable tubes that they can use to represent their business and add some professionalism to their shipping material. Our paperboard shipping tubes can be wrapped with printed material in a variety of colors and designs. Want to display a logo or message on your shipping tube to make it easily identifiable? No problem. Just give us the designs and we’ll print out covers that are sized to fit your tube.

Color printing isn’t the only customizable feature on our paperboard shipping tubes. You can order a wide range of sizes to suit your shipping needs. With paperboard thicknesses that go all of the way up to 0.75”, inside diameters up to 30” and length up to 40 feet, you’ll be able to get exactly what you need to ship your product. We have the size you need!
