‘Tin sealing’

Sealing non plastic containers has always been a major challenge so when the initial enquiry for sealing tins of a new balm for a leading cosmetics brand arrived on my desk there where several items to consider – e.g. Does the tin have a ‘special’ coating, is there a heat seal coating that will seal to the tin, can we design a sealing system to conform to the tin and provide enough heat, time & pressure to activate a seal?

All the above had to be tested and several versions of tins and seals had to be rejected but working closely with both Crown (tin supplier) and Ballerstaedt & Co in Germany we finally arrived at a workable solution
