The innovative, five-tube Metal Ball Family from Albéa is engineered to provide an amazing cooling and massaging effect while enhancing formula benefits. The product range features diameters from 16 to 50mm and capacities from 5 to 250ml. The wide range allows precise application for small, localized body areas, as well as larger areas where fast and efficient application is needed. Body care, facial care, eye contouring and local applications are some of the markets covered by the new family.

As the world leader in tube manufacturing, Albéa's innovation capabilities bring to the market solutions that meet customers' needs while allowing differentiation. Every family tube has been designed in the company's Innovation Centre in Gennevilliers, France. Further, they are all produced in Albéa factories, except for the Artist Roll-on 2 applicator, which is produced by Albéa supplier Zeller.

Albéa implements safety inventories on standard colours to offer its customers the best service and short lead times. To target also small and medium product lines, Albéa's minimum order quantity is 15,000 units.

The Metal Ball Tube family was given the "Plastic Tube of the Year 2013" award from the ETMA (European Tube Manufacturers Association), which recognized the applicators' innovative character, decoration potential and remarkable user benefits.
