How to use

Gently roll the document, poster or print with even pressure to avoid tight creasing, then insert it into the tube so the roll sits centered along the tube’s length. Fit compatible end caps to each open end and secure them according to cap design; if necessary, apply adhesive tape around the cap junction for additional sealing. Affix a shipping label or address directly to the tube surface, ensuring the information is visible and legible for postal handling.

Usage recommendations

For fragile or high-value prints, consider wrapping the rolled item in acid-free tissue or a protective plastic sleeve before inserting into the tube. Avoid overfilling the tube to prevent deformation; keep rolled diameter below the internal diameter to maintain shape and protection during transport.
