Tube Boxes
Tin-Lid Tube
Also known as: Metal-end tube, composite can
In a tin-lid tube the body is paperboard while the base and lid are tin. The tin base is seamed onto the body and the tin lid fits over the top end.
The metal parts add strength and a premium feel; because the lid can be opened and closed many times, it suits products kept in use such as coffee, tea and drinks.
Typical uses
- Coffee and tea
- Spirits
- Eyewear and accessories
- Gourmet products
