Explore our premium selection of certified child-resistant tins and jars. Every design is certified under US Child-Resistant standards (16 CFR 1700.20) to ensure the highest safety profile for your consumer products.
CR Tin (Andylots Tin Box Packaging Co.,Ltd) is a streamlined, single-source professional supplier of child resistant tin boxes and jars. We integrate custom locking mechanism design, mold making, rapid sampling, physical compliance testing, and scalable mass production under one roof.
CR Tin began developing certified child resistant lock designs in 2016-2017. Over our 9 years of dedicated research and development and pioneering experience, we have achieved child resistant safety certifications for over 70 custom designs, covering all major metal packaging styles across the industry, and establishing our own unique child resistant locking system.
Whether you require airtight screw-top jars, slide-to-lock tins, or push-and-turn custom metal containers, CR Tin matches state-of-the-art tooling capabilities with rigorous quality control to deliver high-performing solutions for regulated industries globally.
Unveiling the economic and environmental drivers behind metal jar and tinplate containers.
Markets in North America and Europe mandate strict child-resistant packaging standards (ASTM D3475, 16 CFR Part 1700.20) for pharmaceuticals, wellness, and cannabis. Failure to comply leads to severe legal liability and product recalls.
Global brands are aggressively phasing out single-use plastics. Infinitely recyclable tinplate metal jars represent the premier alternative, blending zero-waste initiatives with premium brand value.
Industrial metal jars provide excellent barrier protection against oxygen, moisture, and light. Embossed branding and high-fidelity offset printing yield a durable tactile product that stands out on retail shelves.
At CR Tin, our production facility based in the global packaging epicenter of China offers structured cost and lead-time advantages that Western fabricators cannot emulate. By integrating regional material supply chains and deploying advanced tooling automation, we reduce time-to-market and per-unit production costs dramatically.
From regulated pharmaceutical containers to upscale retail displays, our metal jars fit seamlessly across demanding commercial use cases.
With custom locks and airtight seals, our jars are perfect for gummies, chocolates, and flowers, complying with all state-level packaging mandates.
Pocket-sized slider and hinged tin cases protect dry confections, maintaining freshness while offering satisfying mechanical closure mechanisms.
Secure, senior-friendly yet child-safe metal jars designed for dietary supplements, lozenges, and specialty prescription formulations.
High-end cosmetic tins and screw-top jars suitable for solid balms, salves, and dry cosmetic powders looking to bypass plastic packaging.
Over 8 years of pioneering child-resistant tin development experience underpins our manufacturing ecosystem.
Choose from over 12 patented and certified child-resistant structures ready to deploy, reducing certification testing lead times for your brand.
Our experienced R&D crew provides 3D CAD modeling, virtual rendering, and rapid SLA 3D physical mockups within days of initial consulting.
Multi-stage quality checks oversee raw tinplate chemistry, hinge tension, automated locking alignments, and final outbound box packing.
Maintaining high compliance standards does not mean pricing your brand out of the market. We optimize unit costs through structured production mechanics:
Compliance packaging requires consistency across runs. Our QA/QC framework covers the entire lifecycle of your order:
We work closely with your design team to make sure your brand shines. Our visual and structural customizations include:

Procuring child-resistant metal packaging requires attention to regulatory details and shipping timelines. When selecting a manufacturing partner, prioritize the following features:
Ensure the supplier provides documentation for compliance (US CPSC 16 CFR Part 1700.20, ISO 8317). Sourcing pre-certified structures saves testing fees and months of administrative delay.
Specify food-contact grade tinplate (electrolytic tin coating weight). Verify that internal gold lacquers or organosol coatings protect against corrosion from moist contents.
Check the factory's tooling shop capacity. An in-house mold facility allows for rapid adjustment during custom designs without waiting on external suppliers.
