Custom Tin Packaging Production in Dongguan
Our cooperating production base is located in Dongguan, Guangdong, within South China's Greater Bay Area manufacturing network. Its location provides convenient access to the tinplate supply chain and major export ports in Shenzhen and Guangzhou.
The production base is supported by more than 200 employees across production, engineering, quality control, purchasing and order execution. With automated, semi-automated and supporting production lines, it has a monthly capacity of approximately 300,000 tin containers. Access to more than 10,000 existing molds also helps customers reduce tooling costs and shorten product development time.
Global Destinations & Audited Compliance
We support custom tin packaging projects for customers in North America, Europe, the Middle East and other international markets.
The production base operates under an ISO 9001 quality management system, is a Sedex member and has completed relevant SMETA social responsibility audits. Food-contact material testing can be coordinated through recognized third-party laboratories according to the product application, food type, contact conditions, destination-market requirements and buyer-specified standards.
In addition to FDA- and LFGB-related testing, project-specific testing support can be arranged for the European Union, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, Japan and other destination markets, subject to confirmation of the applicable standards before testing.
Premium Material Sourcing
Reliable metal packaging begins with suitable raw materials. Tinplate specifications, thickness and internal coating are selected according to the product application, structure and destination-market requirements.
Material documentation and relevant test reports can be reviewed or arranged according to project requirements. Incoming materials are checked before production to support consistent thickness, surface condition and forming performance.
Product Design & Engineering
We work closely with your team to review your design blueprints, 3D files, or product dimensions. Our engineering team assists in optimizing the tin box structure to balance visual appearance, functional performance, production feasibility and your brand requirements.
Blueprint Review
We review your drawings, dimensions and packaging requirements before moving into structure development.
3D File Support
Existing 3D files or product references can be used to improve tin box shape, size and opening structure.
Structure Optimization
Our team helps balance visual appearance, production feasibility, functional use and packaging protection.
Brand Requirement Fit
Each design detail is adjusted to match your brand positioning, artwork direction and market application.
High-Definition Printing
Custom artwork is transferred onto tinplate sheets using offset printing processes. The factory supports precise CMYK, Pantone color matching, and various premium surface coating effects to ensure accurate brand presentation.
Precision Sheet Shearing
Printed tinplate sheets are precisely sheared and trimmed into individual small blanks according to the flat-pattern layout of each tin structure.
This sizing process is controlled to achieve clean edges and consistent dimensions before the subsequent stamping and forming stages.
Flexible Stamping & Forming
The production base deploys a combination of fully automated progressive stamping lines and manual/semi-automated press workstations. Fully automated machinery is utilized for high-speed, high-volume consistency on standard structures, while semi-automated lines provide the precise manual control required for complex geometry, structural R&D samples, and premium low-volume customization. Flat metal blanks are formed into tin containers through multi-stage forming, edge curling and bottom seaming according to the selected structure.
Assembly & Quality Control
Formed tin components are routed to assembly and inspection. Quality checks are carried out at relevant production stages, including assembly and lid-fitting verification.
Inspection items may include dimensions, printing alignment, lid fit, opening tension, surface appearance and packing condition according to the approved sample and order requirements.
Finished Product Packaging
Approved tin boxes are packed using factory-standard export methods or customized packing configurations according to the product structure and shipping requirements. Protective bags, dividers or other suitable materials can be used with export-quality master cartons to reduce scratching and deformation during transportation.
Storage & Dispatch Preparation
Packed finished products are organized in the finished-goods storage area. Shipping batches are identified and prepared according to the confirmed order and dispatch schedule.
Global Shipping & Container Loading
The final stage involves professional container loading and logistical dispatch. We cooperate with reliable international freight forwarders to handle shipping arrangements via LCL or FCL.
Shipment packing, documentation and loading arrangements are coordinated according to the order and selected trade terms. Full Container Load (FCL) and Less than Container Load (LCL) options can be arranged according to shipment volume and destination.
