Soft-Touch on a tube + label combo
On a tube combo, soft-touch is a velvet-feel matte lamination layer — the premium tactile finish you see on beauty boxes and skincare bottles. Tubes are tight cylinders — small diameter, wrap-around label — which means the finish has to register perfectly across the seam and survive squeezing, pocketing, and the inside of a customer's handbag.
We run tube labels on HP Indigo 6K with optional Scodix raised UV and JetFX foil. Tubes are sourced from our wholesale partners (Chubby Gorilla, glass, HDPE) and the label is sized, printed, and applied (or shipped flat) in-house.
