ut the “re-sealable” cheese chub „clip-tube®”?The clip-tube® is a cost-effective tube-like packaging that can be filled easily and free of air. A tubular bag, e.g. made of aluminium laminated film, is sealed with clips, forming a seal of originality. This package is complemented by a unit consisting of shoulder piece with safety ring, screw cap with extrusion nozzle including opening function and cap, with optional Euro hanger. After removing the safety ring the clip-tube® is opened by screwing in the extrusion nozzle.
In the case of a sausage shaped, clipped product, the complete packaging line for soft cheese with TSCA or FCA/TSA will continue to be used. In a subsequent production step the CBS completes the automatic line for the production of clip-tubes®. The continuous production flow is maintained. With its modular design, the CBS bonds a threaded end cap onto the sausage shaped product and attaches a single component at each following work station. The attachments can be such as end caps, Euro hangers or extrusion nozzles – and the re-sealable “soft cheese chub” is ready.
The benefit of this type of packaging is the re-sealability of a soft cheese product and the appetizing repeat application after first opening. The clip-tube® is a cost-effective packaging as compared to traditional tubes at portions starting from 50 ml and diameters from 18 to 50 mm. Easy to squeeze by hand, it is particularly suitable for portioning and appealing presentation of soft cheese, meat paste and seafood spread. The tube cap is eye-catching by the variety of shapes and colours.
Re-sealable, reduced waste, longer shelf-life and even more cost-efficient than tubes – these are the decisive advantages of the new packaging solution clip-tube®. When it comes to its many possible uses – in catering or at home – creativity knows no bounds and no limitations. It was not for nothing that it won the renowned German Packaging Award in the category “Sales Packaging 2012” straightaway.
