Abstract

Developed in the U.S.A., the collapsible aluminium tube now represents over 60% of the collapsible tubes made in the U.K. The metal is resistant to a wide range of products and where necessary it readily takes protective and decorative coatings. This article considers the tube in relation to content and environment and also covers test procedures.
