In pharmaceutical applications, Tubs are used as protective transport solutions for NEST systems containing pre-sterilized Ready-to-Use (RTU) components such as syringes, pre-capped cartridges, and vials. Designed to preserve the cleanliness and integrity of the primary containers, Tubs enable the safe and controlled transfer of RTU components through different manufacturing environments and into aseptic areas. Their robust and hygienic design makes them a reliable solution for the handling and protection of sensitive pharmaceutical components throughout the transfer process.

Tub for Food

Designed for delicate, spreadable, and moisture-sensitive food items like butter, margarine, spreadable cheese, yogurt, and specialty spreads, Tub packaging delivers hygienic sealing, rigid structural protection, and a clean, premium visual presentation. From single-serve portions to family-sized containers, this versatile packaging style optimizes retail shelf impact while ensuring maximum barrier integrity. 
Engineered for round, oval, and rectangular tub formats, this pack style offers exceptional material flexibility, seamlessly handling pre-formed plastic, thermoformed containers, paper-based cups, and eco-friendly recyclable substrates. 
Depending on your product’s shelf-life requirements, it can be configured with heat-sealed foil or film lids, tamper-evident neck bands, and re-closeable snap-on covers to preserve freshness after opening. The result is total protection against oxygen, light, and moisture, paired with a smooth, high-impact surface for brand messaging that stands out on refrigerated display shelves.
