Details of Metal spice tins

01

Size Options

Our spice tins come in a variety of sizes and shapes, ranging from small cylindrical containers to practical square tins. Common options include cylindrical tins such as D1.8 × H4.5 inch (D45.72 × H114.3 mm) and D2 × H5 inch (D50.8 × H127 mm), as well as square models like 8×8×H3 inch (203.2×203.2×H76.2 mm). All dimensions can be fully customized to fit your product requirements. Designed with flat edges and slim profiles, these metal tins can be stacked neatly or arranged efficiently, maximizing storage and shipping space.

02

Lids & Closures

Shining spice tins offer a variety of lid styles for convenience and freshness:
Screw-top lids: Threaded metal caps that seal tightly for leakproof storage.
Shaker lids: Covers with two dispensing options (sprinkle holes or a pour spout) for easy seasoning control.
Clear-window lids: Transparent top panels (glass or PET) to quickly identify contents.
Hinged flip-top lids: Snap-open metal covers for one-handed access.
Magnetic bases: Strong magnets in the bottom so tins attach to metal surfaces (e.g. refrigerators or racks) for space-saving display.
All lids are engineered for an airtight seal – many include silicone gaskets or inner liners to lock out moisture and air. Optional inner plastic lids or PET-film liners can be added for extra barrier protection. Sealed lids help keep spices fresh and potent over time.

03

Custom Printing Options

We provide full custom printing and finishing to make each tin distinctive:
Full-color CMYK or Pantone printing: High-resolution offset or digital printing for vibrant, brand-accurate graphics.
Varnish finishes: Matte, glossy or spot-UV coatings to create tactile contrast and highlight artwork.
Embossing / Debossing: Raised or recessed logos and patterns add a premium 3D effect.
Metallic inks: Gold, silver or iridescent inks/coatings for luxury appeal.
Full-wrap lithography: 360° labels or sleeves for seamless full-body coverage.
Pressure-sensitive labels: Removable or semi-permanent labels for flexible branding or color-coding.
Our printing presses apply multiple colors at once and can match any Pantone shade. After printing, glossy or matte varnishes are applied as desired. Custom embossing/debossing creates a distinctive tactile finish. These options, including metallic foils and full-wrap litho, let brands turn a simple spice tin into a standout packaging piece.

04

Interior Coating

All tins use food-grade interior linings to ensure safety and freshness:
Food-grade lacquer (epoxy/acrylic): Clear or colored coatings that seal the metal.
BPA-free protective coating: Non-toxic linings certified for edible use.
Gold/Silver protective varnish: Decorative metallic interior for added corrosion resistance.
Odor/acid barrier: Linings formulated to resist flavor transfer and oxidation.
These FDA-compliant coatings prevent the tinplate from reacting with oils or acids in spices. They guard against rust and aroma loss, so the container can hold any herb, spice or tea without altering its scent or flavor. All materials are food-safe and fully tested for use with perishables.
