Composite Tubing Preparation
Production begins with the preparation of composite tubing. Through multi-layer structural composite molding, different functional layers are stably combined to form the basic soft tube body suitable for pharmaceutical use. The layers are uniformly bonded, the tubing is stable overall, and there is no delamination. No delamination or deformation will occur during long-term storage and use.
Tube Body Forming and Sizing Control
After the composite tubing enters the forming process, it is processed into a standard circular tube structure, and its size and shape are controlled to ensure that each batch of tubing maintains consistency in appearance and feel, ensuring a smooth filling process and reducing equipment adjustments and filling abnormalities.
Precise Cutting and Length Control
The formed tubing is automatically cut according to the set specifications, ensuring that each soft tube has a uniform length.
The cuts are smooth, the length error is small, and this avoids problems caused by length deviations affecting filling, sealing, or appearance consistency.


Tube Shoulder Forming and Mouth Fixing
The tube shoulder and mouth are firmly combined with the tube body through a molding process, which is a crucial step in the soft tube structure. This ensures that the tube mouth does not loosen or leak during repeated squeezing and capping.
Sealing Process
After filling, the soft tube is sealed at the bottom through a standard sealing process.
The seal is fully fused, flat, and secure. This affects the safety of the product during transportation, storage, and use, reducing the risk of seal failure and product returns.
In-Process Quality Inspection
Multiple inspection procedures are set up during the production process to confirm the appearance, structural integrity, and basic performance. This allows for timely detection of abnormalities, preventing problematic products from entering the next process, reducing batch risks, and improving overall stability.
Finished Product Inspection and Release
Before shipment, the finished products are uniformly inspected to confirm that they meet the established production standards before entering the packaging and shipping process.
Aluminum Barrier Laminate (ABL) Tubes
ABL tubes combine multiple material layers with an aluminum barrier to create high-performance pharmaceutical packaging.
Benefits include:
- Excellent oxygen and moisture barrier
- Extended product shelf life
- Durable and lightweight construction
- Smooth surface for high-quality printing and labeling
ABL tubes are commonly used for topical treatments, dermatology creams, and pharmaceutical pastes.
Plastic Barrier Laminate (PBL) Tubes
PBL tubes are flexible, lightweight packaging solutions that offer strong barrier performance without aluminum.
- These tubes are suitable for:
- Over-the-counter topical medications
- Medical creams and gels
- Pharmaceutical skincare treatments
- Antibacterial and antiseptic products
Their flexibility and durability make them ideal for products requiring convenient dispensing and reliable packaging protection.

Application Scope of Pharmaceutical Tube Packaging
Topical Creams and Ointments
This is the single largest application of pharmaceutical tubes. Prescription and over-the-counter topical creams — including antifungal, antibiotic, anti-inflammatory, and corticosteroid formulations — are routinely packaged in collapsible aluminum tubes. The hermetic seal protects active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) from oxidation, and the zero suck-back feature ensures that the cream remains sterile throughout use.
Ophthalmic Ointments
Products applied near the eyes require the highest sterility standards. Ophthalmic ointments — used to treat eye infections, dry eyes, and post-surgical conditions — are packaged in small-diameter aluminum tubes with precision nozzle tips. The controlled dispensing helps avoid accidental over-application, while the tube material ensures zero contamination.
Dermatological Preparations
Dermatology relies heavily on tube packaging for products such as medicated lotions, emollients, anti-itch creams, acne treatments, and wound-care gels. These formulations often contain sensitive active ingredients that require a light-blocking, oxygen-impermeable barrier — precisely what aluminum tubes deliver.
Veterinary Medications
Collapsible tubes are equally important in veterinary medicine. Topical treatments for skin conditions, intramammary preparations for cattle, and wound-healing ointments for animals are all commonly packaged in pharmaceutical-grade aluminum tubes. The robust construction ensures they withstand the handling demands of agricultural and clinical veterinary settings.
Dental and Oral Care Gels
Medicated toothpastes, fluoride gels, and dental anesthetics often come in collapsible tube format. Their hygienic dispensing mechanism is ideal for oral care products, where contamination control and precise dosing are important for patient safety.
Nasal and Rectal Preparations
Specialty pharmaceutical formats such as nasal gels and rectal ointments also utilize collapsible tubes. These require controlled, mess-free dispensing and contamination-proof packaging — both hallmarks of aluminum tube design.
