Got a real poser for you guys this morning.

I have a tube of triple action colgate toothpaste at home. It comes out in 3 stripes, green, blue & white. How the hell do they get the stripes in there? and how come it comes out stripy all the way to the end?

Whoever can answer that gets a large jar of umbongo. :;):

Striped Toothpaste

Striping of toothpaste is solely for the purpose of providing an alternative appearance; it provides no functional benefit to the consumer.

Striped toothpaste can be produced by including two different colored toothpastes in an unusual type of packaging. The collapsible tube has two tanks, one filled with each color paste (see figure). Squeezing the tube pushes the two pastes out the opening. The tube nozzle layers the pastes to produce a striped pattern.

To keep the cost of packaging to a minimum, it is now common for tubes to be filled with striped paste (e.g. Aquafresh). As the tube is squeezed, the stripes flow parallel to each other and do not mix. The patterned paste that gets dipensed is simply a narrower version of what is in the tube. Filling is done using a multi-nozzle filling head that dispenses a different colored stripe in each direction. To keep the stripes parallel to the axis of the tube, the head starts at the bottom and retracts as it fills, staying just above the level of the paste. Tubes with two compartments are generally reserved for toothpastes containing two formulas intended to react together and therefore kept isolated until dispensed (e.g. Colgate Simply White).

This might explain it a little better. I also remember seeing it made on T.V - i think it was "How its made" on Discovery...f**k knows. Anyway, hope this helps.

Thanks Red, i can see how it makes stripes now. But i rechecked my tube of toothpaste, and its not actually stripes. It comes out in a 3 colour swirl or spiral? How do they make it come out in a spiral?

with the nozzle, it twists the paste
