    Where to buy postal tubes and acid-free tissue paper?

    Hello,

    I am struggling to find postal tubes to deliver large artworks and acid-free tissue paper for protecting my artworks. I have tried some art supplies shops in hk island, but no luck. Does anyone know where I can get postal tubes (preferably at least 110cm high) and acid-free tissue paper?

    Thanks!

    You could try Chung Nam Stationery aka CN Square. There store in Mong Kok is on 4 floors packed with stationery. They have other branches but I believe the MK one is the biggest.

    The Yau Ma Tei address at the bottom is the MK one I am on about.

    East_coast, emx and shri like this.

    Post Offices also sell Mailing Tubes, but unfortunately the largest is 740mm long.

    For tubes try hardware store / plumbing supplies they have plastic pipes in different diameters and end caps too.

    There is an architectural supply store on Pokfulam Road near HKU that has sold cardboard tubes in the past.
    Yang Ngai Architectural Model Materials Company
    Sai Ying Pun, Pok Fu Lam Rd, 16號41號

    Many years back I searched everywhere in HK for acid free tissue. I had no luck and just ordered off amazon.
