Aligning with our approach to have sustainability as the driving factor behind our innovations, UFlex has developed an eco-friendly tube packaging for different applications available in different dimensions. The Paper based tube packaging – KRAFTIKA, crafted by UFlex was developed on the concept of REDUCING the use of plastics at the source itself, thereby minimizing the overall impact on the environment that a conventional tube has. KRAFTIKA involves replacing plastic with a Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) Certified virgin kraft paper that helps reduction of tube’s body weight by up to 45%. FSC certification vouches that products come from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social, and economic benefits. KRAFTIKA tubes provide all the features of FlexiTubes in addition to it being eco-friendly which adds more to its acceptability over conventional tubes.
