Inplex Extrudes Beauty into Everyday Life

For over 50 years, Inplex has been in the business of manufacturing high-quality plastic products for a variety of different markets, including the beauty and cosmetics industry. We take great pride in the work that we have done for beauty companies, producing high-grade dip tubes, and custom profiles to satisfy our customers’ packaging needs.

Poorly designed or low-quality packaging reflects badly on your business. It can leave your customers unable to effectively apply your products, which can lead to frustration and dissatisfaction with your brand, making for fewer repeat purchases. Your customers want products to be effortless to apply. Only superior-quality plastics offer the reliability needed to make that possible.

Inplex understands just how important these packaging elements can be, so we take great care in the production of our custom plastic profiles. We engineer these profiles to your exact specifications and design them with both functionality and overall aesthetic in mind.

Top Quality Custom Plastic Extrusion for Common Household Beauty Products

What do shampoo bottles, lipstick tubes, and perfume bottles all have in common? Aside from helping to store common beauty products used by millions of people every day, these distinct product packages feature plastic pieces that serve very specific purposes.

While often overlooked by the average consumer, industry professionals know just how important these pieces are to the effectiveness and functionality of packaging. High-quality plastic products such as dip tubes and plastic profiles are absolutely vital to the success of your beauty brand or company.

Not Only Does Plastic Extrusion Make Beauty Products Look Good, It Makes Them Function

Beyond the aesthetic allure of plastic household beauty product packaging, the integral role of quality plastic extrusion becomes important in ensuring not just the form but also the product functionality. The precision, reliability, and quality of custom plastic extrusion is key to creating containers that not only showcase visual appeal but also meet the specific requirements crucial for the functionality and longevity of beauty product packaging.

Whether it’s the custom creation of an extended dip tube facilitating the extraction of every last drop of product or the crafting of specialized plastic pump tubing, custom plastic extrusion techniques enable the design and production of components tailored to the unique needs of beauty products. The durability and resilience achieved through quality extrusion processes ensure that these containers can withstand the demands of daily use, maintaining the integrity of the product within.

In essence, it’s not just about the surface allure of a plastic container, but the meticulous craftsmanship through plastic extrusion guarantees both the visual allure and the functional excellence of beauty product packaging.

The Leading Plastic Manufacturer for Custom Extruded Beauty Product Packaging

At Inplex, we manufacture custom plastic tubing according to our customers exact specifications. You may request specific lengths and diameters for your tubes, then choose from our selection of stock colors or custom match colors to your brands requirements. You can even choose from transparent, translucent, or opaque tubing to create the look that best suits your brand or product requirements. No matter what your needs are, we can deliver a beauty product that not only meets them but exceeds your expectations.

High-Quality Flexible Plastic Dip Tubes for Beauty Products

In containers that dispense products with pumps or spray nozzles, the dip tube is quite possibly the most important component. Every time your customers press on your product’s pump or squeeze the trigger on its spray nozzle, they should feel confident that the beauty product will be drawn through the tube, out of the container, and into their hands seamlessly, ready for easy application.

Poor-quality plastic dip tubes can cause the product to become stuck and unable to dispense properly. This is an issue you should avoid at all costs as it is very likely to negatively affect your brand image. Thankfully, high-quality dip tubes from Inplex allow you to rest assured knowing that the quality of your product packaging is guaranteed, no matter what your requirements are.

Types of Materials to Create Flexible Plastic Tubing for Beauty Products

We offer several different materials to create flexible plastic tubing for beauty products. Each beauty product flexible plastic tubing comes with its own particular uses and characteristics:

  • Polyurethane – very tough; abrasion and cut-resistant
  • Santoprene – lightweight and rubber-like
  • Flexible vinyl (FPVC) – versatile; excellent for outdoor applications
  • Low density & linear low-density polyethylene (LDPE and LLDPE) – economical; has good chemical resistance
  • Flexible nylon 11 & nylon 12 – tough and chemical-resistant; has a high heat deflection temperature

High-Quality Custom Plastic Profiles

Sometimes the most important parts of quality beauty product packaging are the ones your customers seldom pay attention to, like the twist tube of a lipstick or the cap of a nail polish bottle. Much like dip tubes, each of these plastic pieces needs to be designed with precision. Improper design can cause loose product seals or ill-fitting pieces, leading to damaged products and customers dissatisfied with the difficult application of your cosmetics.

We offer two types of plastic profiles in a number of different materials depending on your specific requirements.

Flexible Plastic Profiles

At Inplex we offer different plastic profile options for your projects. Flexible profiles can be ideal for many beauty products. Some common flexible plastic profiles include:

Polyurethane – resilient and scratch-resistant, available in several hardnesses
