Frequently Asked Questions

Are your metal tins child-resistant (CR) certified?
Yes. All CR-certified tins meet ASTM D3475 and 16 CFR 1700 child-resistant packaging standards, satisfying the requirements of all U.S. state cannabis regulations. Slide-top and hinged-lid CR mechanisms are available. Each production batch ships with a certificate of compliance and ASTM test documentation.
What sizes and shapes of tins do you offer?
We offer slide-top, hinged-lid, round, and rectangle tins. Round tins range from small concentrate tins to large flower containers. Rectangle and custom shapes are available for larger orders. Custom dimensions and interior compartments can be tooled for your specific product.
What printing and decoration methods are available on metal tins?
Offset CMYK printing directly onto metal surfaces delivers full-color photographic reproduction. Additional options include embossing, debossing, spot UV, matte or gloss coating, and custom interior printing. All finishes are scratch-resistant and food-safe.
