Cardboard postal tubes for secure shipping

Our cardboard postal tubes provide a robust solution for mailing rolled items like artwork, architectural plans, or maps. The durable cardboard construction protects contents from bending and damage during transit. For alternative formats, consider our range of tube boxes.

Triangular postal tubes for posters and prints

The defining feature of our main postal tube range is its triangular design. Unlike traditional round tubes, these triangular tubes for posters will not roll on conveyor belts or in delivery vans, ensuring safer handling by couriers. This shape also means they store and ship flat, saving valuable warehouse space before use. Assembly is quick and straightforward. We offer both unprinted and custom-printed versions to suit different business needs. The Plain Cardboard Triangle Tube is an excellent choice for a clean, minimalist look, available in small quantities. For businesses wanting to showcase their branding, the Custom Cardboard Triangle Tube provides a canvas for full-colour digital printing. Apply a logo, brand colours, and any other design elements across the entire surface. We supply both options in various sizes to accommodate standard paper dimensions.

Versatile poster tubes and other postal tubes

Beyond the triangular format, Packhelp supplies other packaging solutions for cylindrical or long items. These poster tubes are ideal for a wide variety of goods beyond just paper, including textiles, small components, or promotional items. Their protective structure makes them a reliable choice for e-commerce businesses shipping delicate products. The Plain Cardboard Tube Box offers a rectangular alternative with tuck-in ends, providing a different style of unboxing and a flat surface for shipping labels. All our postal packaging solutions come with low minimum order quantities, making them accessible for small businesses, start-ups, and large enterprises. Simply select the size and quantity required and upload artwork for any custom-printed option.
