The Hinge Lid Pack (HLP) is the global industry standard for premium cigarette packaging, offering a sophisticated combination of structural durability and brand prestige. Engineered as a multi-component system, our hinge lid solutions are designed to withstand the rigors of high-speed automated production while providing a satisfying "click-to-close" tactile experience for the consumer. It serves as the ultimate protective shell, ensuring the product inside remains pristine from the factory to the final cigarette.

Overwrap Shrink Tightening Film—typically high-clarity Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene (BOPP)—is the final protective layer for cigarette packaging. It provides a hermetic seal that serves three vital functions: moisture regulation, tamper-evidence, and visual enhancement. Our films are engineered with specialized heat-shrink properties that ensure a "drum-tight" fit around the hinge-lid pack, delivering a glass-like finish that highlights the brand’s colors and textures while maintaining product freshness.
Tear Tape (also known as "Tear Strip") is the essential opening solution for overwrapped cigarette packs. Applied to the inner surface of the BOPP or cellulose film, it allows for a quick, clean, and effortless opening experience. Our tear tapes are engineered with high-tensile polymers and advanced pressure-sensitive adhesives, ensuring they bond perfectly to packaging films while maintaining the strength to slice through wraps without snapping. Beyond functionality, our tapes serve as a critical vehicle for brand security and aesthetic differentiation.
Tipping Paper is the essential sensory interface between the consumer and the cigarette. As a specialized decorative and functional paper, it serves to join the filter rod to the tobacco column while providing a critical touchpoint for brand identity. Our Tipping Paper is engineered using food-grade materials and high-precision perforation technology to balance aesthetic luxury with sophisticated airflow control. Optimized for ultra-high-speed cigarette makers, it ensures maximum mechanical efficiency and consistent smoke delivery.
The Inner Frame (also known as the "Frame Board") is the critical structural component of hard-box cigarette packaging. It acts as the "skeleton" of the pack, providing the necessary rigidity to maintain the box's shape and protect the cigarettes from external pressure. Our inner frame board is engineered with high-modulus fibers to ensure extreme stiffness, clean folding, and seamless compatibility with ultra-high-speed packaging machinery.
Our premium Inner Liner is a high-barrier, precision-engineered solution designed to serve as the primary protective shield for tobacco products. Utilizing advanced vacuum metallization and specialized coating technologies, it provides an airtight environment that preserves the essential moisture and delicate aroma of the tobacco blend. Specifically optimized for ultra-high-speed packing lines, this liner ensures both mechanical reliability and a superior, luxury unboxing experience for the end consumer.
