Slimline Cartons for Topical Creams, Gels & Ointments

Topical medical creams and dermatological ointments packaged in aluminum or flexible plastic squeeze tubes need long, slender cartons that maintain vertical stability on retail display stands. Our ointment tube packaging boxes protect the crimped tail of the tube from bending and keep nozzles pristine.

Custom Fit for Tube Length & Diameter

Whether packaging 15g antiseptic gels or 100g barrier creams, we custom-cut the box dimensions around your tube cap, nozzle, and fold. An internal retention fold can be incorporated to prevent the tube cap from pressing against the carton lid.

Key Details

Slender Straight-Tuck Construction: Minimises shelf footprint while keeping the front branding panel tall and visible.
Application Guide Surfaces: Ample panel area to print anatomical diagrams, application schedules, and active ingredient percentages.
Durable Coating: Protective varnish resists skin oils and moisture during repeat patient handling.
Nozzle Protection: Structural head clearance prevents accidental cap loosening or puncture during transit.

Buyer’s guide — before you ask for a quote

Honest answers to help you specify this box. Where a detail depends on your job, we say so rather than guess.

What size should I order, and can you make it to my dimensions?

This box is made to your own size. Measure your product's length, width and height and allow a little clearance for easy packing, then send us those internal dimensions. Unsure of the best fit? Confirm with our team and we can advise or arrange a sample.

Which material and board weight is right for my product?

The material shown for this product is High-Density 350gsm White Card. Other boards and weights may also suit your product depending on how much protection and rigidity you need. Tell us what you are packing and we can recommend a suitable option — Confirm with our team if you would like to compare.

What printing and finishing options can I ask about?

When you enquire it helps to tell us how many print colours you need (or whether you have Pantone references) and whether you want a finish such as matt or gloss lamination, soft-touch, spot UV, foil or embossing. Availability and cost of each finish depend on your box and quantity, so Confirm with our team to check what is possible for this product.

How should I prepare my artwork, and will I see a proof?

Supply print-ready artwork as a vector PDF or AI file with fonts outlined, images at 300dpi and any brand colours specified. If you do not yet have a dieline, ask us for one for this box so your design lines up with the cut and fold. We share a proof for you to approve before anything is printed — Confirm with our team for current proofing timescales and file requirements.

How is the price worked out?

This product is quoted to your specific job — request a free written quote for an exact price. We will not confirm a figure until we have your size, quantity and finish. Price depends on your size, quantity, board, number of print colours and any special finishes — larger quantities usually lower the unit cost.

What is the minimum order and how do I place an order?

The listed minimum order for this product is 100 units. To order, send us your size, quantity, material and finish for a free written quote, approve your proof, then we move to production. If you need a different quantity, Confirm with our team.

How far ahead should I plan for delivery?

Production starts once you approve your proof, so plan your deadline back from there and allow time for artwork, proofing and delivery. Lead times vary by product, quantity and finish and are not fixed on this page — Confirm with our team for a realistic timescale for your order before you commit to a date.

Are there any compliance or safety points I should raise?

This product sits in our Health Boxes range. If your packaging has legal or safety requirements — for example food-contact suitability, child-resistant or tamper-evident features, or specific recycling and labelling marks — tell us at enquiry stage so we can confirm what is achievable for this box. We will not claim a certification or standard we cannot evidence, so confirm with our team about your specific requirements.

Choose Your Material & Finish

Every box is made to order — pick a board that suits your product, then make it yours with a finish.

SBS Cardboard

Smooth white board commonly used for retail and cosmetic cartons. Ask about the specification needed for food-contact applications.

Natural finish

Kraft

Natural brown fibre-based board with a tactile look. Recyclability and biodegradability depend on the full specification, finishes and local collection rules — confirm these requirements with our team.

For shipping

Corrugated

Fluted layers absorb knocks in transit — the right choice for mailer boxes and e-commerce orders.

Luxury

Rigid Board

Thick, solid and substantial. The premium feel used for jewellery, perfume and gift presentation.

Finishing touches

Matt lamination Gloss lamination Soft-touch Foil stamping Spot UV Embossing & debossing Die-cut window
