Explore our flagship range of airtight, secure, and certified child-resistant round tin packaging designed for modern brand demands.
CR Tin (Andylots Tin Box Packaging Co.,Ltd) is a highly integrated, single-source manufacturer specializing in custom metal containers. We coordinate initial locking mechanism mechanics, structural drafting, custom tooling, performance testing, and high-capacity manufacturing under one unified system.
Founded with a focus on compliance and structural integrity, we began expanding our child-resistant lock tin boxes in 2017. Benefiting from close to a decade of active manufacturing experience, CR Tin has developed over 70 certified child-resistant lock styles, capturing a diverse array of profiles utilized in the global packaging market.
The global industrial packaging landscape is undergoing a notable shift toward high-performance metal containers. As international legislative bodies tighten restrictions on single-use plastics and chemical contamination risks, custom round tin cans have emerged as a leading alternative. These containers offer exceptional barrier properties, recyclability, and a premium aesthetic appeal.
"According to industrial packaging studies, transition rates from plastic containers to tinplate alloys are rising at a 6.4% CAGR. This shift is driven by strict ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) targets and consumer demand for plastic-free alternatives."
Premium round tin cans utilize Electrolytic Tinplate (ETP), which combines the strength of structural steel with the corrosion resistance of pure tin. This composite material ensures that food products, pharmaceuticals, and active compounds remain stable, preventing oxidation and UV degradation.
A primary design challenge in modern metal packaging is integrating child-resistant mechanisms without compromising accessibility for older adults. CR Tin has addressed this by developing push-and-turn lids, squeeze-to-open collars, and multi-point lock systems. Our round tin cans are engineered to meet US CFR Title 16, Part 1700.20 and European EN 862 testing protocols, ensuring compliance for regulated markets.
How CR Tin optimizes production efficiency, structural quality, and material cost control across global supply chains.
Choose from over 12 distinct certified child-resistant tin architectures. These designs offer proven mechanics that help speed up product launches and ensure compliance.
Our engineering team provides custom structural designs, detailed 3D renderings, and rapid physical prototypes to turn your concepts into shelf-ready packaging.
We combine automated optoelectronic inspection systems with physical batch audits to maintain tight tolerances and ensure reliable locking mechanisms.
A closer look at how we maintain high standards across design, certification, fabrication, and shipping.
We provide a reliable selection of ASTM-certified locking systems, helping brands navigate complex safety compliance requirements without delays.
We maintain competitive manufacturing costs through automated processes, efficient material choices, and strategic supply chain coordination.
Our quality control system covers every stage of production, from initial tinplate selection to final batch testing before shipping.
We work closely with client design teams, providing structural support, pre-press checks, and prototype samples to bring custom concepts to life.
Building high-quality metal packaging requires a combination of modern machinery, materials science, and clean processing environments. Here is how CR Tin approaches the production process:
We build our molds from high-carbide steel alloys to ensure they maintain precise dimensions across long production runs.
Automated punch presses shape the tinplate into lids and bases with minimal variation, reducing scrap rates.
We use dedicated fixtures to align and assemble child-resistant components, ensuring smooth and reliable operation.
We work to precise tolerances, using standardized materials to meet the rigorous demands of regulated product packaging.

Custom round tins provide an effective balance of product protection, child safety, and brand presentation across a variety of industries.
For items like flower, pre-rolls, and edibles, maintaining freshness is key. Our airtight, child-resistant round tins preserve cannabinoids and terpenes while keeping the contents secure from children.
For high-end chocolates and mints, metal packaging adds an attractive, premium feel. Embossed lids, spot colors, and clean lines help products stand out on store shelves.
Regulated medical products require robust barrier protection against air and moisture. Our tins provide a durable shield that supports child safety requirements.
Sustainability Note: Steel is one of the most recycled industrial materials in the world. Using steel tinplate allows brands to reduce plastic waste and improve their circular economy metrics.
