Matcha Tin Container

Matcha Tin Containers Sized by Servings, Not Just Grams

Once a matcha tin is opened, its deadline to be consumed starts to count down. Matcha sellers commonly advise using an opened tin within one to three months, so the right tin size is the one your customer finishes in that window. The appropriate metal tin packaging size for matcha depends on the amount of matcha powder in it. Thinking in servings makes that easy. A typical bowl or latte uses about 2 g of powder:

For reference, tins already on the market range from about 60 mm wide and 60 mm tall for 30 g to around 60 x 100 mm or 90 x 73 mm for 100 g, depending on how tall or wide you want the tin to look. These are some stock sizes. When you are searching for custom made match tin containers, HOF Pack is here to help you with it. 

Pick the Closure That Matches Your Matcha 

This is the question most buyers only discover after ordering: how will the matcha get into the tin, and how will it stay sealed until the customer opens it?

• Pull-tab or peel-off foil seal, plus a screw cap. The top arrives sealed with a foil membrane, and you fill the tin through the open base, then close the base with a can seaming machine. The customer peels the foil on first use, which proves the matcha hasn't been opened and gives the best protection on the shelf. Ideal for brands filling in large volumes with access to a seamer.

• Screw cap with a rubber seal, filled from the top. No machine needed. You fill it, screw the cap down, and the seal keeps air out. A good choice for smaller brands, cafes, and anyone filling by hand.

• Inner push lid plus outer cap. The traditional Japanese canister style. Simple to fill by hand, and the inner lid presses down onto the powder.

Premium Custom Matcha Tins, Even at 30 g

A 30 g matcha tin is about the size of an espresso cup, so every millimetre of it counts. A few ways to make a custom matcha tin look high-end at that scale:

• Washi paper wrap. Textured Japanese-style paper wrapped around the body gives an instantly traditional, handmade feel. 

• Soft-touch or matte black with one metallic accent. Dark tins with a small gold or silver foil logo feel calm and expensive, and they make the green powder look even brighter when opened. You can also choose gold tins with minimal customizations on them to make them look luxurious. 

• Embossed lid. A raised logo or crest on the lid top looks good from above, which is how matcha tins are often seen on a shelf or in a gift box.

• A circle label on the lid. A small round label or sticker on top can carry the grade, harvest, or flavor, so one printed tin works for several products.

The back of the tin is a good place for a short freshness note, such as "best within one to three months of opening" and "keep closed, cool, and dry." It sets customers to reorder before their matcha goes flat.

Empty Matcha Tins for Repacking and Private Label

Empty matcha tins suit retailers repacking bulk matcha into retail sizes, cafes selling their house blend to take home, and new brands launching a private label line.

• Store matcha tins empty and closed until you fill them, away from coffee, spices, or anything strongly scented, because matcha picks up odors easily.

• Fill in a cool, dry room with a completely dry scoop. Even a little moisture can cause clumping.

• Seal straight away. Close each tin as soon as it's filled rather than leaving a tray of open tins on the bench.
