Trees & plants packaging

Trees and plants are a symbol of sustainability. By packaging them in a sustainable way you reinforce this ethos and this is where our cardboard tree & plants packaging come in. Every element you choose is recyclable and cardboard is sourced from FSC approved suppliers.

In addition to being a more environmentally friendly solution for plant packaging, it’s also a safe option. Plants and tree saplings are fragile and need protection, especially when in transit. Thanks to the durable material and cylindrical structure of our tubes, your plant packaging is resistant to impact and crushing, giving your customers confidence in your products.

At Encircle, we design our tube plant packaging with the intention of standing out from the competition. A cardboard tube with a creative design and a beautiful print finish will help deliver a premium or luxury feel to a normal, everyday product and also get people talking about your brand, raising awareness.

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 trees & plants.

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 trees & plants 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 trees & plants 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 trees & plants 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 trees & plants 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.
