Description

A contemporary and visually appealing dual dispensing tube that adds a different look to a bathroom. The tube has small circular opening at either long end for easy dispensing of toothpaste. The openings can be capped with either a threaded groove twist on cap, or a flip-top cap. This center of the tube is concave, so that the amount of toothpaste is larger toward the openings. The center makes either side of the tube exactly symmetrical to the other. The invention allows the user to squeeze the toothpaste out either end, which prevents the hassle of moving all the contents of the tube to one end.

FIG. 1 is a front view of a dual dispensing tube, showing our new design, depicting the narrower portion of the tube at the center;

FIG. 2 is a left side perspective view thereof;

FIG. 3 is a right side perspective view thereof;

FIG. 4 is a top plan view thereof; and,

FIG. 5 is an isometric view thereof, depicting the symmetry of either side.
