Clube system offers material savings and environmental benefits

Plasticum has created a one-piece integrated tube and closure system, said to offer substantial material savings and environmental benefits. The Clube is produced by bi-injection moulding, while decoration is done by in mould labelling, meaning a less complicated production process, flexibility and short lead times are guaranteed.

According to Plasticum, the production process, in contrast with the traditional extrusion process, enables the production of a complete product in one single production step, meaning that there is no need for additional downstream equipment. As the closure is fully integrated into the tube body, the tube shoulder is eliminated, helping save up to 40% of material. Furthermore the plastic material is completely recyclable.
