Create postal tubes to the exact length
Jetbox recycled board tube reels let you make postal tubes to fit each order, cutting waste and empty space around rolled goods such as posters and artwork. The solid board is supplied flat on 100m reels, so it stores compactly instead of taking up space as pre-formed tube sizes. Cut the length you need, form it into a square-shaped tube and close both ends with the compatible end caps, which are reusable. The square profile moves smoothly through the automated sorting systems couriers use. Two diameters are available, 64mm and 76mm, each with its own end cap. The board is FSC-accredited, made from recycled material and fully recyclable after use.
Sold and priced per reel.
Where do cut to size postal tubes work best?
Cut to size postal tubes suit packing areas sending variable-length rolled products that want a snug fit without stocking many fixed tube sizes.
- Posters and prints, where cutting the tube to the exact length removes empty space around the item.
- Artwork and creative work, where the solid board keeps rolled contents secure in courier handling.
- E-commerce despatch, where flat reels store compactly and free up space over pre-formed tubes.
- Courier distribution, where the assembled square postal tubes work with automated sorting systems.
Not for
- Teams that want pre-formed tubes to pick, pack and seal. Use standard postal tubes instead.
- Sealing without caps. The reel forms the tube body and needs compatible Jetbox postal tube end caps at each end.
- Flat items that must not be rolled. Use cardboard envelopes for certificates, contracts or photos.

FAQs
Do these reels include end caps?
No. The reel forms the tube body; you need compatible Jetbox end caps to close each end.
Can I cut the tube to any length?
Yes. Measure the product, cut the length you need from the 100m reel, then fit caps to both ends.
Why is the tube square rather than round?
The square shape works with courier sorting systems and helps the parcel move through distribution.
Are the end caps reusable?
Yes. The Jetbox end caps are reusable, which cuts waste where returned components can be recovered.
Are these board tube reels recyclable?
Yes. The board is FSC-accredited recycled material and fully recyclable after use.
