There is provided a pack (10) for a product (12) which is sealingly retained in a volume defined by first and second films (13, 14) sealingly secured about a periphery. The pack has an openable portion through which a liquid contained in the product (12) can be dispensed. One of the films (14) has a pre-formed hinge (20) across at least part of the volume to assist folding of, and liquid extraction from, the product (12). The pre-formed hinge (20) may be in the form of a pre-formed fold line.

Proposed is a tube container in which generation of scratches on a surface of the container can be prevented. The present tube container (100) includes a tube body (30) that defines a container space (S) for contents and that has a laminated structure. The tube body (30) includes: a cylindrical laminated sheet (31) in which both edges (31a, 31b) of the sheet are butted together; and a reinforcing tape portion (reinforcing tape 35) provided on an inner surface of the laminated sheet (31) along a butted portion (32). The laminate sheet (31) includes a high hardness protective layer (18) constituting an outermost layer, an outer polyethylene-based resin layer (21) formed on an inner side of the high hardness protective layer (18), and an inner polyethylene-based resin layer (11) constituting an innermost layer, and the high hardness protective layer (18) has a pencil hardness of 3B or greater than 3B. The reinforcing tape portion (35) includes a polyethylene-based resin layer (outer reinforcing resin layer 59) as an outermost layer abutting against the inner surface of the laminate sheet (31).

A paper squeeze tube is revealed. The paper squeeze tube includes a cap, a front tube, a rear tube, and a clamping ring. The paper squeeze tube is completely made of environmentally-friendly materials to replace conventional squeeze tube made of plastic or aluminum. The cap, a front tube, and a clamping ring are made of biodegradable plant materials which is mainly formed by bamboo powder. The cap is connected to a tube body of the front tube while the rear tube is made of waterproof paper and having an upper end connected with the front tube. The front tube and the cap work together to seal the upper end of the rear tube and further form an intact and sealed paper squeeze tube. The paper squeeze tube is suitable for substances or commodities such as toothpaste, engine lubricant, oils, adhesives, and facial cleanser.
