A tin can manufacturer should cover both stock packaging and new tooling. DOLYPACK works with aluminum and tinplate jars, tins, and boxes from 5 ml to 6,000 ml, using existing molds for standard shapes and in-house tooling for custom containers.
| Capability | Details |
|---|---|
| Materials | Aluminum and tinplate |
| Construction types |
|
| Size range | 5 ml to 6,000 ml capacity, with aluminum screw caps sized independently from Ø17.5 mm to 89 mm. Low-profile flat formats are also available at 60 ml and 130 ml for products that need a shallow footprint. |
| Tooling | New mold and die development happens in-house, so a custom shape does not require sourcing a separate tool supplier. |
MOQ, tooling cost, and production time are confirmed once the container drawing, decoration method, artwork, and order quantity are reviewed — they move together, not off a fixed price list.
Stock molds skip the tooling step entirely and move to production faster. A new die for a custom shape adds development time before production starts, which is worth it for a distinctive silhouette but unnecessary when an existing mold already fits the brief.
Food-contact documentation, where a product requires it, is confirmed per project during the same review rather than covered by one blanket certification across every line.
Detail is limited by metal gauge and seam placement. Bolder shapes reproduce more reliably than fine line work, and aluminum takes embossing more cleanly than tinplate at the same gauge. Tooling cost increases with pattern depth and finish complexity.
Screen printing, laser marking, and matte, glossy, frosted, metallic, lacquered, and anodized finishes extend customization beyond embossing.
Jars and lids sized for pour weight and burn performance: 8 oz candle jars, 16 oz candle jars.
Jars for creams, balms, and powders: metal cosmetic jars.
Tins for coffee, tea, and candy: custom food tin packaging, tea tin cans.
Pill, powder, and oil containers: fish oil containers.
Packaging applications: custom supplement tin packaging.
Treat and supplement tins: pet food tin packaging.
A quote is built after reviewing the container drawing, decoration method, artwork, tooling requirement, and order quantity. Production route, print alignment, finish, and sample handling all get confirmed at that stage rather than off a generic price list.
