franja falsa
Esta "franja falsa" (puedes poner otros equivalentes, como "franja del mismo color que el contenido", etc.) es una porción del envase que tiene el mismo color que el contenido. Lo que hace es "simular" el contenido del envase para dar la impresión de que está lleno, pero no lo está. Aquí va lo que encontré.
"Tubed Products had to create a "cheater band" that would exactly match the product color to conceal empty space inside the top of the tube. "You can't fill a tube completely with product [and have it] seal correctly," says Gilbertie. "We needed to fill the clear tube with our colorful formulation, leaving roughly half an inch to an inch of empty headspace."
Suerte,
Ignacio

De la misma referencia que citó Patagonia, este es el párrafo que explica lo que es \"cheater band\":
Tubed Products had to create a \"cheater band\" that would exactly match the product color to conceal empty space inside the top of the tube. \"You can\'t fill a tube completely with product [and have it] seal correctly,\" says Gilbertie. \"We needed to fill the clear tube with our colorful formulation, leaving roughly half an inch to an inch of empty headspace.\"
