Abstract
The technical problem of this invention is to laminate the outer layer onto a main body of a tube, wherein a projecting portion or portions are formed, while maintaining certain uniformity. The object of this invention is to provide the laminated tube and molded tube products comprising the laminated tube, which shows the decorative effect, derived from the laminated outer layer, and enables the user to identify the tube only by touch. The outer layer is laminated onto the main body of the tube. By changing the number, width, or shape of the projecting portions, it is possible to give the decorative effect and identifiable features to the laminated tube. The laminated tube can be used to mold tube products, such as tubular containers and pouch containers.
