Alcohol & Drinks Tube Packaging – Custom Cardboard Tubes for Spirits, Wines, Cocktails, Teas & More

At Luxury Tube Packaging, we design and manufacture bespoke printed cardboard tubes tailored to the drinks industry — from high-end spirits and wines to luxury tea packaging, coffee gift sets, and functional non-alcoholic bottle tubes. Whether you’re a boutique gin brand, a heritage whisky distillery, or a health-focused beverage start-up, we provide premium custom drinks tube packaging that protects your product, elevates your branding, and delights your customers.

Our drinks tube packaging is available in a range of fully recyclable formats — including butted tubes, telescopic tubes, and one-piece cardboard tubes with metal or plastic caps. These tubes are made from sustainable Kraft cardboard, eco-friendly paper, or food-safe board, depending on your requirements. We can add inner foil linings for moisture protection, and our full range of custom finishes — such as CMYK print, Pantone colour matching, foil stamping, embossing, and matt/gloss lamination — allow you to create a truly standout drinks packaging experience.

We help businesses across the UK and beyond develop luxury drinks tube packaging that fits their exact product dimensions, marketing goals, and sustainability standards — ideal for retail, gifting, hampers, events, subscriptions, and e-commerce.

Alcohol & Drinks Packaging

Versatile Tube Packaging for All Types of Beverages

Whether you’re launching a single bottle or an entire product range, we manufacture printed cardboard tubes to fit any shape or size — including small 5cl taster bottles, 70cl spirits, heavy ceramic vessels, and multi-can gift packs. Our butt-jointed cardboard tubes and telescopic tubes offer exceptional strength, making them ideal for delicate or breakable bottles, while eco tubes made from Kraft board and printed with soy-based inks allow you to align with environmentally responsible values.

Unlike rigid boxes or plastic alternatives, cylinder drinks packaging offers a tactile, 360° branding opportunity — ideal for premium drinks, artisan alcohol, cocktail kits, CBD beverages, and more. Our one-piece tubes with metal end caps are especially popular for wine tube packaging and luxury spirits, offering both secure closure and refined shelf presence.

If you’re a coffee roaster, tea blender, or functional drinks supplier, we can also create custom printed eco tubes that protect the contents while showcasing your sustainability credentials. Foil linings, Kraft textures, and Pantone colour-matched prints help your brand stand out — whether on a boutique shelf or in a gift set.

Why Drinks Brands Choose Luxury Tube Packaging

Cardboard tube packaging offers something traditional boxes can’t — a 360° branded canvas, increased shelf impact, and a premium feel that reinforces the quality of what’s inside. For drinks brands looking to differentiate, our luxury tube packaging turns each bottle into an experience, not just a product. The cylindrical shape lends itself perfectly to spirits, liqueurs, tonics, teas, and coffee gifts, enhancing perceived value and giftability.

Our team works closely with every client — from boutique gin brands to global beverage companies — to develop printed cardboard tubes that reflect the personality of your product. Whether you’re creating a collectible launch, a high-end PR box, or simply upgrading your retail packaging, our drinks tubes help tell your story in a way that’s both elegant and practical.

Palmarae Gin – Protective Cardboard Tubes for Ceramic Bottles

Palmarae Gin is a luxury brand that “pairs with paradise” with its exclusive gin aimed at high-end cocktails; they use a mix of fine botanicals and French distilling knowledge to create their distinctive gin. To complement this premium gin, they approached us for tube packaging that aligns with the elegance of their product while providing necessary protection, considering the gin is bottled in thick ceramic materials.

Understanding their need for sophisticated yet protective packaging, we focused on creating a design that not only enhances the gin’s luxury appeal but also ensures its safety. The packaging had to be as refined as the gin itself, highlighting their commitment to quality and style, while also being sturdy enough to protect the ceramic bottles during transport.

EDEN Treats – Butted Tubes for Plant-Based Liqueurs

EDEN Treats approached us to develop four versions of our butted cardboard tubes to package their award-winning plant-based liqueurs. They had previously experienced breakages during shipping, so we prioritised a robust drinks tube design that offered structural integrity while aligning with the brand’s vibrant identity.

Each tube featured custom CMYK print, matt lamination, and rolled ends for added durability. Gold foil accents were used to highlight the logo and unify the packaging with the client’s themed hampers. These recyclable cardboard tubes were both protective and eye-catching — a premium packaging solution for a bold, modern brand.

Speaker Hoyle’s – Printed Whiskey Tubes for Premium Spirits

Speaker Hoyle needed custom cardboard tubes that embodied their prestige as a heritage whiskey brand. We crafted butted tube packaging for their 5cl and 70cl whiskey bottles, with reinforced interiors and rich CMYK printing to match the brand’s deep tones.

The finishing touch was gold foil detailing and a protective matte varnish that ensured the packaging reflected the product’s value. These printed drinks tubes now serve as a staple of Speaker Hoyle’s retail and gifting strategy, elevating their visual identity and improving product protection during shipping.
