Glow in the Dark Tube

Colors and additives to the tube material have also been increasing. Options available are glow-in-the-dark, metallic, soft touch, iridescent and transparent," says Kim Kraynak, marketing manager, Continental Packaging Solutions, Chicago, IL.

Decorative touches don't stop with the tube body, however. Even tube seals are getting a makeover. "Another decorating trend is the shaping of the seal of tubes to create a more unique package," adds Kraynak.

All that said, not all packaging vendors have witnessed an emphasis on decoration. Chris White, president of The Filling Station, Flemington, NJ, believes decorative effects have been downplayed this year in favor of focusing on what's inside: the ingredients.
