Best Cylinder Tin with Lid

When capacity matters, a large cylinder tin with lid delivers volume without losing shelf appeal. This tall lidded tin (dia 106 x 252 mm) holds bulk quantities of cookies, pasta, tea, coffee or pet treats, and its height gives brands a billboard-sized print area that stands out in retail. It is equally popular for gift hampers and collectible editions.

Built from food-grade 0.23 mm tinplate, the tin accepts an optional food-grade interior lacquer for direct contact with dry foods. Diameter, height and lid style are all customizable, and with more than 2,000 molds in stock, most large-cylinder dimensions are available without new tooling.

We print directly on the tinplate using CMYK offset printing with oil-based inks, with Pantone spot colors (Pantone Metallic included) for exact brand matching. A glossy finish gives maximum color vibrancy; a matte finish feels more refined and shows fewer fingerprints. Embossing and debossing are available to give your branding a tactile edge.

Behind every tin is a factory with 17 years of experience, more than 2,000 ready molds and an output of 3,000,000 cans per month. If your product fits an existing mold, production starts at 5,000 pieces with no tooling cost. A fully custom size requires a new mold, a larger minimum order and a tooling fee — our team will gladly check the library for the closest match before you commit. Samples ship in 12~15 days.
