Telescoping Tube

The Telescoping Tube solves a real fulfillment problem: shipping items of varied lengths without stocking a dozen tube sizes. Two nesting sections slide and lock to a range of lengths, so one SKU adapts to posters, prints, and documents of different sizes — and adjusting the tube to the contents means less empty space, less movement in transit, and better protection. For operations that ship mixed lengths, it cuts inventory and damage at once.

Flexibility doesn’t cost branding. The telescoping tube prints just like a standard tube — flexo spot color or a full-color wrap on kraft or white — so every adjustable tube still arrives fully branded. Integrated or push-on caps keep the contents secure at whatever length the tube is set to, and the adjustable design means a snug fit that protects better than an oversized fixed tube.

This tube is a favorite for print-on-demand and fulfillment, mixed-length document shipping, and retailers with varied SKUs, where one adjustable tube replaces a shelf of fixed ones. A POD shop ships posters of many sizes from one tube; an office mails documents of varying lengths; a retailer standardizes on a single flexible package. Fewer SKUs to stock and better fit both save money. With a 500-unit minimum and volume pricing, it fits a growing shop or a large fulfillment operation.
