A3 RECAP POSTAL TUBES

Plastic-Free A3 Recap Postal Tubes Our A3 Recap postal tubes pair our compact, durable cardboard tube with a fully plastic-free end cap, so certificates, diplomas and smaller prints travel in packaging that’s recyclable from end to end, not just the tube body. It’s our most sustainable option for shipping documents that are often kept and framed rather than thrown away. What Makes a Recap Tube Different? Our Recap range goes further, using an upgraded end cap material designed to remove plastic from the closure entirely, without losing the grip and seal strength of a conventional plug. For universities, award bodies and businesses with a zero-plastic sourcing policy, Recap gives you a tube built around that requirement, rather than a general-purpose tube that happens to be recyclable. Built for Certificates, Diplomas & Compact Prints A3 is our most compact standard size, and Recap tubes at this size are most often used for certificates, diplomas, maps and smaller artwork or photography prints, where a rigid tube matters more for presentation and protection than for sheer scale. Need A Lower-Cost Standard Option? If the Recap end cap isn’t a requirement for your shipment, our standard A3 Postal Tubes offer the same protective construction at a lower price point, with our regular plastic-free plug fitted as standard.
