Premium Custom Tea Tin Boxes for Luxury Tea Packaging

Premium custom tea tin boxes give loose-leaf and specialty teas the packaging they deserve. This tall rectangular tin (94 x 59 x 150 mm) shields delicate leaves from light, air and moisture, while its slim profile stands out on retail shelves and in gift sets. Tea brands, gift companies and private-label importers choose it when building a luxury tea line.

Customization starts with size and material. This model is one of more than 2,000 molds in our library, so most dimensions are available without new tooling. The body is made from food-grade 0.23 mm tinplate, and the interior can be lined with a food-grade lacquer that prevents corrosion and stops the metal from reacting with your tea — essential for preserving flavor over a long shelf life.

Printing is handled in-house with CMYK offset printing and oil-based inks; Pantone spot colors, including Pantone Metallic, are available when your brand needs an exact match. As a rule of thumb, a glossy finish makes printed colors look brighter and more saturated, while a matte finish reads subtler and more premium. Embossing or debossing adds a tactile accent to your logo. A food-grade paper cushion pad under the lid keeps the contents snug during transport.

Tin Men has been manufacturing tin packaging for over 17 years. Our factory keeps more than 2,000 existing molds in stock and produces 3,000,000 cans every month. Orders built on an existing mold start at just 5,000 pieces; a completely new size is also possible, but it involves custom tooling, a higher minimum order and additional mold cost. If one of our 2,000+ molds fits your product, it will save you both time and money — and custom samples are ready in 12~15 days.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Are these tea tins safe for direct food contact?
Yes. The body is made from food-grade tinplate, and the interior can be coated with a food-grade lacquer that prevents corrosion and keeps the metal from reacting with your tea.

Q: Can I get an airtight version for better freshness?
Yes. Airtight and double-lid structures are available. Tell us how long you need to preserve the tea and we will recommend a suitable structure.

Q: What is the MOQ for a custom tea tin box?
5,000 pieces when your tin uses one of our 2,000+ existing molds. A brand-new size requires custom tooling, a higher MOQ and a mold fee, so choosing an existing mold usually saves both time and cost.

Q: Which printing and finishing options do you offer?
CMYK offset printing with oil-based inks, Pantone spot colors (including Pantone Metallic), glossy or matte varnish, and embossing or debossing for a premium touch.
