Self tanning packaging

There are lots of self-tanning products on the market today, particularly from large industry leaders such as L’Oréal, Unilever, Estée Lauder and more. With so many big players in a growing market, it can be a challenge to get your product noticed. With an attractive packaging shape, design and additional sensory triggers such as finishes and features, you can distinguish your self-tanning brand from its competitors. With our expert printing techniques and range of tube designs, your product can achieve a premium, luxury feel and we’ll work closely with you at every stage to help you get there.

Tanning products can cause unwanted mess and stress if they arrive damaged or punctured. Customers who have bad experiences with your products are highly unlikely to buy from you again. With our tanning lotion packaging, you can protect your products across the supply chain, thanks to the material and cylindrical structure, which offers crushing resistance and impact resistance.

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 Tanning products packaging. You can choose from a range of tube designs and closures to help you customize your packaging further.

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 tanning products.

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 biscuits or cookies with an exciting element of theatre upon opening. This type of cardboard tanning products 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 tanning products 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 tanning products 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 tanning products 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.
