Made in California from BPA-free material, they are gentle on the planet’s health as well as its inhabitants. What’s more, they are about responsible practices all the way from our design table to your recycle bin.

IMAGINE. ADAPT. DO MORE WITH LESS.

Why use different cans, pouches and boxes when Tubism lets you do more with less? Our smart tubes are designed to welcome a variety of products. Think body lotion and sunscreen; or glitter and glue. Even applesauce for your little one – yes, the tubes are food-safe.

THINK. DO. LEAVE A SMALLER FOOTPRINT.

The earth’s bounty makes our life beautiful. Everyday, we borrow from her in a million ways both big and small.

Tubism reduces what we take from her, one reusable and fully recyclable tube at a time. It’s an easy way to leave a softer and smaller footprint on the planet. Don’t take our word for it. Check the numbers.

86.6 MILLION

Recycling and composting prevented the disposal of 86.6 million tons of material in America.

168 MILLION

It stopped almost 168 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent from being released into the air.

33 MILLION

That was as good as taking over 33 million cars off the road for a year!

 FAQs

Are these tubes food-safe?

Yes, they are. And BPA-free too. Let’s get that picnic going!

Can I write on them?

Sure, you can. All you need is a marker. Nothing like a couple of smiley faces to make your little one smile, right?

Are the tubes microwave-safe?

No, these tubes are not microwave-safe. It’s a great idea though and we’re working on it.

I hope they are dishwasher-safe. Are they?

Yes, they are; top rack only. Doesn’t that make reusing them easy?

Hmmm, how about freezer friendly?

We are glad you asked. The tubes are freezer friendly. Now you can freeze and store single-serve quantities!

Where are the tubes made?

Our tubes are proudly made right here in the United States of America, sunny California to be precise.

Can I wash the tubes by hand?

Of course, you can! Warm soapy water and regular dishwashing detergent will do fine. Just treat them with a bit of love.

How many times can I reuse a tube?

Typically, our tubes last several dishwasher cycles, but it’s entirely based on how you use them. Higher intensity usage will lower reusability and vice-versa. A little bit of love goes a long way!

Is the tube recyclable?

Don’t we love this question! All parts of the tube are recyclable: the tube body, flip-cap and hey – the packaging too! While you’re at it, can you please look around for other things you can recycle?

Can I carry them on a plane?

Oh, our tubes are high fliers. They hold a maximum of 1.7 Fl Oz (50 ml) which is comfortably below the Transport & Safety Administration (TSA) limit of 3 Fl Oz (89 ml). Happy travels.

Is this a cool product?

Looks like you skipped our home page. The usage ranges from peanut butter and jelly to paint and glue! Yes, the tubes are cool and we are nerds.
