Description
Overview

Child Resistant Paper Tubes

A certified closure on a fibre body. The plastic-free answer for regulated products.

Board tubes with certified locking mechanisms give child resistance without a plastic vessel. The certification covers the tube and its closure together, not the mechanism alone.

Measure Twice

Sizing & dieline.

We wind and cut Child Resistant Paper Tubes to your product instead of pulling a stock size off the shelf. Send us the diameter and height of the item (or the item itself) and we return a measured spec, free, before you commit to anything.

How to measure
01
Measure the product

A cylinder needs two figures, not three: the diameter across its widest point, and the height. Measure the item itself, not the pack you happen to use today.

02
Add clearance

Allow 2–3 mm on the diameter so the product drops in without binding, and a few millimetres of headroom if a lid, pillow or tissue sits on top.

03
Give us the order

We quote round formats as Diameter × Height. Tell us whether you are working in millimetres or inches and we match it.

What It Costs

Pricing & minimums.

We price Child Resistant Paper Tubes per specification rather than from a fixed list, because the same build in two different finishes can land at very different numbers. Below is what actually moves the price, so you can shape the spec before you request a quote.

What moves the price
Quantity

The single biggest lever. Unit cost falls sharply as volume rises, because setup and tooling spread across more pieces.

Material and thickness

Board weight and stock choice change both the raw material cost and the shipping weight of the finished run.

Finishing

Foil, spot UV, embossing and soft-touch each add a pass on press. One or two lift the box; five compound the cost.

Print coverage

Full-bleed print inside and out costs more than a one-sided design on natural stock.

Inserts and hardware

Foam, moulded pulp, velvet pillows, magnets and ribbon are priced per piece on top of the box itself.

Timeline

Standard production is the base rate. Rush moves you up the production queue and carries a surcharge.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions, answered.

Everything you need to know about Child Resistant Paper Tubes.

A certified push-and-turn closure fitted to a wound fibre body. The cap only releases when it is pressed down and turned at the same time, an action that the test protocol confirms most young children cannot complete.

The body is a standard spiral-wound tube. The child resistance comes from the closure and from how tightly that closure is matched to the tube's inner diameter.

For the tube and closure together, tested as one pack to the 16 CFR 1700.20 protocol. A cap that passes on one tube diameter does not automatically pass on another.

This is why we do not swap closures between sizes without retesting. When you change the diameter, the certification has to follow the new combination.

Yes. The push-and-turn closure locks again every time it is replaced. The tube stays child-resistant through repeated opening for the life of the pack.

The base is sealed or fixed, so the only way in is through the certified cap. That matters for products that are used over days rather than once.
