Premium metal containers optimized for structural integrity, airtight safety, and local market appeal across Peruvian distribution networks.
The Peruvian confectionery market is undergoing an unprecedented shift toward premiumization, functional health products, and ecological consciousness. In dynamic urban centers such as Lima, Arequipa, and Trujillo, local consumers are actively demanding higher quality food-grade presentation. There is an emerging niche for herbal lozenges and functional mints featuring indigenous ingredients—such as Muña (Andean mint), Maca, and premium cacao products. Packaging plays an integral role in keeping these delicate ingredients fresh while offering high brand value on shelf.
Historically, reliance on standard plastic packaging has diminished due to the strict enforcement of sustainability policies and the global move toward metallic materials. Metal tinplate packaging not only ensures zero moisture migration, maintaining the therapeutic qualities of dry formulations, but it also reflects a premium corporate identity. Understanding these dynamics is critical for importing brands looking to compete in supermarket chains like PlazaVea, Wong, and Metro.
CR Tin has designed its production and material supply lines to perfectly align with the functional demands of Peruvian importers. From air-tight seals that handle the high coastal humidity of Lima, to secure locking systems required by the growing Peruvian natural medicine industry, our product lines are optimized for high performance.
CR Tin (Andylots Tin Box Packaging Co.,Ltd) is a streamlined, single-source professional supplier of child resistant tin boxes, integrating child resistant lock design, mold making and sampling, child resistant lock testing, and mass production. CR Tin began developing child resistant lock tin boxes in 2017.
After nine years of research and development and pioneering experience, we have over 70 certified child resistant lock tin boxes, covering all tin box packaging styles in the industry, and have established our own unique child resistant lock tin box system.
Our core mission is to empower global brands, particularly those establishing localized lines in rapidly growing South American hubs, by removing the complexity from custom tin design. We guide clients through the entire regulatory and engineering pipeline—ensuring that every tin box produced meets standard chemical and mechanical parameters for reliable protection.

Sourcing premium food-grade mint tins from China to the Peruvian market requires strict attention to details. Because food and dietary supplement packaging directly affects consumers' health, regulatory compliance is the number one priority.
In Peru, the Dirección General de Salud Ambiental (DIGESA) is responsible for regulating packaging materials that come into direct contact with food and beverages. In accordance with local health laws, importers must show that tinplate containers do not migrate toxic metals (such as lead, cadmium, or chromium) into the confectioneries.
CR Tin uses food-grade Electrolytic Tinplate (ETP) lined with food-grade internal lacquers (organosol or epoxy-phenolic resins) that comply with both FDA (United States) and European Union standard regulations. We supply all the necessary raw material certification reports, chemical analysis documents, and migration test results required by DIGESA for importing.
As functional mints, energy lozenges, and dietary supplements expand across pharmacies and specialty shops in Lima, secure child-resistant (CR) configurations are increasingly vital. Following North American design rules, like ASTM D3475 (and equivalent South American standards), protects families and builds strong brand trust. Our certified slide, round, and rectangular locking systems are engineered to require two distinct movements (such as push-and-turn or squeeze-and-slide) to open, keeping child protection high and adult access simple.
Shipping costs and delivery timelines directly affect retail margins. Our facilities in China's manufacturing hubs offer efficient transport routes to the Port of Callao in Lima. Typically, transit times range from 30 to 45 days. We prepare all packaging for long ocean voyages, using moisture-absorbing silica gel packs, heavy-duty double-corrugated outer boxes, and plastic pallet wrapping to ensure your tins arrive clean and dry.
