Custom

Most custom boxes are opened and recycled away, but tin packaging works differently. People keep them and use them for years, long after the product inside is gone. 

Sometimes it ends up on a desk holding paper clips, in a drawer full of buttons, or back on the shelf refilled with tea. Every time it is reused, your brand is right there. Our custom tin packaging gives your brand that staying power. Choose the shape, size, and lid style, add your artwork, and get these metal tins printed with your design either directly or on labels and stickers for a more affordable option. 

Custom Printed Tins in Every Shape, Size, & Style 

Round, square, rectangular, heart-shaped, or tall and slim, tin boxes can be made to suit almost any product. You can also opt for some other unique and playful designs that match any theme and occasion. As much as the design matters, the lids also play an important role in the overall experience. 

• Screw top tins twist shut and stay closed in bags and in the post.

• Slip lid tins push on and lift off in one easy move.

• Hinged tins have a lid that flips open and never gets lost.

• Slide tins open with your thumb, perfect for pocket-sized products.

• Window tins have a clear panel, so customers can see what they’re buying.

Tea Tins, Candle Tins, Cookie Tins, and More

The versatility of tin boxes is not limited to a single product. You can use them for a wide range of products and occasions. For example, 

• Tea and coffee: tall round tins with a snug lid to keep out air and light.

• Candle tins: sturdy tins that handle hot wax, with a lid that keeps the scent in.

• Tins for cookies and chocolates: wide round or square tins that double as gift boxes.

• Mints and gum tins: slim hinged or slide tins that fit in a pocket.

• Balms, salves, and solid perfume tins: small, shallow tins with screw tops.

• Gift sets and corporate gifts: large rectangle tins with an embossed logo on the lid.

1 oz Metal Tins for Balms, Samples, and Mints

Small tins are some of the most popular ones we make, and customers order them. 1 oz metal tins are about two inches across and just under an inch deep, so they slip easily into a pocket or purse. 

Whether you need a 1 oz tin container with a lid that screws on tight or simply pushes on, they’re the go-to choice for lip balm, hand salve, beard balm, solid perfume, candle samples, and travel-size treats.

• 1 oz screw-top tins keep balms and salves sealed tight while they’re carried around.

• 1-ounce tin containers with slip lids are quicker to open and work well for mints and samples.

• 1 oz tins hold about 20 grams of a thick product like balm, so weigh a filled tin before printing the net weight on your label.

Need a different size? Small round tins come in a range that grows with your product line:

• ½ oz: mini lip balms, testers, and party favors

• 1 oz: everyday balms, salves, and sample candles

• 2 oz: body butters, solid lotions, and travel candles

• 4 oz: larger candles, hair waxes, loose tea, and spice blends

• 8 oz and up: full-size candles, cookies, coffee, and gift sets

Many brands use two or three sizes in the same design, a small one for testers and a larger one for the full product, so the whole range looks like it belongs together.

Making a lot? Ordering 1 oz tins in bulk brings the price per tin right down, and 1 oz metal container bulk orders mean you’re never short of stock when a new batch is ready.

Make Your Custom Tins Unmistakably Yours

Printing goes straight onto the metal, so your design won’t peel, scratch off, or fade like a sticker can. Make your custom tins stand out with:

• Full-color artwork on the lid, the sides, or wrapped all the way round

• Raised or pressed-in logos that people can feel

• Matte, gloss, or metallic finishes to match your brand

• Silver, gold, black, or your own brand color as the base

Seasonal and limited-edition designs are a great way to get people collecting. Change the artwork, keep the tin, and watch customers come back for the next one.

Customized Tin Packaging Is Built to Protect What’s Inside

Tins are strong, so they don’t crush, bend, or tear the way cardboard and plastic can. They keep out light, dust, and moisture, which helps tea, coffee, spices, and chocolates stay fresh for longer.

For food, you can ask for food-grade tins with a protective lining inside, so the metal never touches what you’re packing. 

Tins are great for solids, powders, dry goods, and balms, but they aren’t designed for runny liquids unless they’re specially sealed. And when they’re finally finished with, metal tins can be recycled and repurposed again and again.
