Tubes

Since the turn of the century tubes have been industrially manufactured on tube winding machines. In order to cope with the steadily increasing demand of spinning mills for small tubes, a different and faster production technique had to be developed. Paperboard was wound onto a wooden core on a rotating axle and the layers were glued together. KLUG-CONSERVATION tubes are made from ageing resistant, spiral-wound, natural white coloured paper plies. Tube caps made of age-resistant cardboard or PE can be ordered separately.
