Typical Production Timeline

A custom tin box project usually includes consultation, structure review, artwork preparation, sample production, sample approval, mass production, inspection, packing, and shipment. The exact timeline depends on project complexity.

Design and Structure Review

Before sampling, the structure, size, closure, artwork, and finishing requirements should be reviewed. This stage helps prevent production issues and ensures the design is suitable for tinplate manufacturing.

Sampling Time

Sampling is important for confirming size, printing, color, finish, lid fit, and overall packaging presentation. Complex finishes or new structures may require additional sample adjustments.
