Paper tube and composite-can plants in Dongguan say small-diameter beauty and supplement programs are pulling capacity for foil liners, easy-peel ends, and tight print registration.

Suppliers in the Dongguan Liqun Packaging segment warn that food-contact or cosmetic-contact declarations need to be scoped at RFQ—label claims added after sampling slow bulk release.

Why buyers care: tube ID/OD drift and end-component mismatches create fill-line downtime overseas.

Buyer takeaways

Lock ID/OD, wall thickness, and end type before artwork.
