First time using this calculator?
Replace the example values with figures from your supplier sheet or measurements. Choose the unit beside each value. Results update as you type; fix any highlighted field before using the result.
GSM means grams per square metre. Net weight excludes the core and other packaging. MOQ means the minimum order quantity. An optional field can stay blank unless the result you need depends on it.
Prices keep the selected currency; changing its label does not convert an exchange rate. Save or export the result after checking your inputs.
Help with order quantity
Enter the usable quantity you actually need. Waste, pack rounding or minimum order effects are added separately where required.
Help with freight for this order
Enter the transport charge for the same shipment or order represented by the other fields. Use 0 only when the supplier has confirmed that freight is included.
Help with tooling allocated to this order
Enter one-time plates, dies, cylinders, moulds or setup charges for the first order. Keep this separate from repeat-order cost.
Unit label only. No currency conversion.
Additional measurements (optional) — some values entered
These are only needed for additional result units or a more detailed estimate. Entered values still affect the result when this section is closed.
Cost per tube
Quoted amounts and all charges use the selected currency without FX conversion.
Do not add freight or components again if the quoted amount already includes them. Duty is an entered monetary amount.
Landed cost/unit = base quote/unit + additional components/unit + (freight + tooling + duty + other) ÷ quantity
0.2 + 0.04 + 0 + (250 + 0 + 0 + 0) ÷ 10,000 = 0.265/unitSaved calculations stay in this browser. No account or cloud backup is created.

How sensitive is this result to your assumptions?
Vary one input and inspect cost per tube
All other entered inputs stay fixed. Ranges are your scenarios, not statistical confidence or supplier performance predictions. This uses the same validated calculator engine.
The formula, made clear.
Choose a unit tube price or a total order quotation, then add any separately priced cap and decoration per tube. Allocate freight, tooling, duty and other entered fixed amounts over the order quantity. This reveals the effect of batch size while preserving the need to compare aluminium, plastic and laminate tube specifications separately.
How to use this calculator
- 01
Choose unit or total-order tube pricing and enter the order quantity.
- 02

0.2 + 0.04 + 0 + (250 + 0 + 0 + 0) ÷ 10,000 = 0.265/unitCheck the displayed formula and units against your quotation. Use measured GSM, net weight and actual layout dimensions where available. Default densities are planning assumptions, not certified material properties. Calculated cost does not certify strength, compatibility or safe loading.
