Slip-Cover Lids for Easy Access
Slip-cover lids are simple, reliable, and easy to open. Furthermore, they fit securely on the tin while allowing quick access to the product inside. As a result, they are a popular choice for food, cosmetics, confectionery, candles, and specialty products that require frequent opening and closing. Their clean, minimal design also provides a professional appearance while maintaining dependable everyday performance.
Hinged Lids for Added Convenience
Hinged lids stay attached to the tin, so there is no separate lid to misplace. They open and close easily, making them ideal for products that are used frequently. This closure style improves convenience for consumers while keeping the lid aligned with the container after every use. It is widely used for mints, candies, balms, waxes, and other products that benefit from quick, repeated access. The integrated hinge also creates a cleaner user experience, making these tins a practical choice for both retail and everyday use.
Screw-Top Lids for a Secure Seal
Screw-top lids provide a tighter closure and added product protection. They are commonly used for products that need extra security and freshness during storage and transport. The threaded closure helps reduce the risk of spills and accidental opening while providing a dependable resealable seal. This format is suitable for powders, creams, balms, and specialty products that require reliable containment between uses. It also supports repeated opening and closing without compromising closure performance, making it ideal for products with an extended usage cycle.
Food-Safe Lining for Freshness Protection
Food-safe lining options help protect products from air and moisture while preserving freshness. This makes metal tins suitable for teas, coffee, spices, confectionery, snacks, herbs, and other specialty food products. Different lining options are available to match your product formulation and storage requirements, helping maintain product quality, flavor, and packaging performance throughout its shelf life. We recommend the appropriate lining based on your product’s ingredients, storage conditions, and intended shelf life to ensure reliable long-term performance.
Epoxy Lining for Chemical-Resistant Applications
For pharmaceutical, industrial chemical, and specialty formulation applications where the product would react with bare metal, epoxy-lined tins provide a chemically resistant interior surface that isolates the product from the metal walls and lid. The epoxy lining is the standard for pharmaceutical tablet and capsule tins, specialty cosmetic product tins where certain active ingredients interact with metal surfaces, and industrial product tins where chemical compatibility of the container is a product specification requirement.
Capacity Range From 0.25oz to Industrial Sizes
We produce custom metal tins with lids in sizes ranging from 0.25 oz for lip balms, samples, and trial-size cosmetics to large tins for premium confectionery, professional cosmetics, and industrial applications. The full capacity range from individual-serve through to large gift collection sizes means a single brand can produce a complete range of tins from the same design brief in coordinated sizes for every product format and retail price point.
Finish Options From Silver to Custom Color
Metal tins are available in plain silver metal finish, gold enamel coating, black lacquered finish, and custom painted colors in brand-specific shades. The finish of a tin is one of its most powerful brand communication decisions. A silver tin communicates classic heritage quality. A gold tin communicates luxury and occasion. A matte black tin communicates bold, premium authority. A custom brand color communicates a brand confident enough in its identity to put it in the container’s finish rather than just the label.
