Rigid tubes are a fundamental part of many industries as they are strong, robust and can be chemically resistant. This makes them suitable for use with hazardous materials and can offer protection to those handling the products on a daily basis. We recommend using sturdy rigid tubes in the agriculture industry.

Storing specimens and small components may also need a rigid tube to ensure the contents are safe and therefore our products are also suitable for both the automotive and laboratory, analytical and pharmaceutical industries. One of our largest application for rigid tubes is within the hobbies and craft industry where the tubes can be used for storing products such as glitter, embroidery beads, gun maintenance and fishing boilies.
