Confectionery packaging

Chocolates, sweets and other confectionery products make a bigger impact when in a beautifully decorated tube. They’re typically associated with celebrations such as birthdays or Christmas, so gifting something a little out of the ordinary (i.e. a standard box) adds perceived value to the gift, making it extra special and even a premium, luxury feel. By choosing Encircle as your bespoke confectionery packaging supplier, your product is certain to stand out from the crowd and enhance brand awareness.

The material and cylindrical structure of our tube packaging offers crushing resistance and impact resistance, helping to protect your confectionery product across the whole supply chain.

At Encircle, we’ll work closely with you to optimise your chosen print design and provide guidance on how to benefit the most from bespoke confectionery packaging.

Tube options

Encircle offers three different tube designs for your products.

Standard Single Container

This comprises a single tube with a base and a lid at one end. Choose this option for the most cost-effective solution for packaging your confectionery.

Two-part Container

This design offers increased strength and a more premium top-shelf feel. Each part has a base and lid and slides into each other over the internal shoulder (spigot), giving a satisfying, crafted appeal to the package. Choose this option if you really wish to stand out on the shelves.

Telescopic Container

This premium double-walled design offers the highest level of protection for your fragile confectionery with an exciting element of theatre upon opening. This type of cardboard biscuits & cookies packaging uses an inner tube with an outer tube placed over the top to form a closure. Choose this design if you’re looking to deliver an exciting unboxing experience for your customer.

For all of these cardboard confectionery packaging options, you can expect:

Fully recyclable packaging
UK manufactured
Bespoke Sizes and Prints
Large printable area
Made from FSC approved material
All-cardboard options for easier recycling

Lid Options

Finally, each container needs a closure or lid. Select from the following options:

Curled End

The most environmentally-friendly solution for your cardboard confectionery packaging because the entire tube can be recycled in a single waste-stream. The ends of the container are curled and a cardboard disc is secured in place. This gives the container a very neat and crafted look.

Metal

Metal ends and lids will provide your confectionery packaging with style and strength, best suited for premium food products. A seamed metal end creates a permanent seal. Embossing lids with custom designs such as your logo is also an option we provide.

Plastic Caps

Provides the most effective closure system and is available in a range of sizes and colours. For a more permanent closure, caps can be stapled or riveted.

We’ll provide you with guidance on all the possibilities when it comes to printing, features and finishes so that you can supply us with a design that’s a cut above the rest.

Step 4: Production starts

We’ll print the label, add any features and finishes, wind, wrap and slit the tubes according to your preferred option and add the appropriate closures.

Step 5: Out for delivery
