The Canmaker Cans of the Year Awards 2021Do you have special requirements for the packaging of your product and your own ideas? Be it an unusual shape, a special cap or a unique finish or safety feature. For us, (almost) everything is possible. Together, we can develop a tin according to your ideas – from the initial idea and production, to logistics and the filling process.
As a manufacturer of metal tins, strict quality policy is an essential part of our corporate strategy. We therefore focus on the standards that our customers must comply with and prove. We continuously optimize systems, processes, and production to ensure the highest product quality in the future, too. We adhere to the guidelines of the Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and we are regularly audited by external experts for our certifications.

The company's airtight metal lid takes gold in the lids and closures category, while its all-metal CR cans are awarded bronze for prototyping.
In cooperation with Hoffmann Neopac, thyssenkrupp Rasselstein GmbH has achieved another step towards climate neutrality. The two companies signed a letter of intent that ensures the long-term supply of the new CO2-reduced bluemint® rasselstein® packaging steel by thyssenkrupp Rasselstein.
Company’s next generation of recyclable CR Tins meet stringent guidelines to keep kids & pets safe – all while further enhancing overall sustainability.
In order to manufacture round and square tins, we first print on and varnish the metal sheet, which we then cut into strips, punch out and deep-draw. Deep-drawing is the tensile compression forming of a metal sheet using stamps and stencils. After further reconstruction, the definitive shape and functionality of the tin is finalized. We use high-performance presses that can produce up to 200 tins per minute depending on the size and shape of the tin.
Welded tins are made from three parts (the body, lid and bottom) and are therefore often referred to as three-piece tins. In order to manufacture welded tins, we first print on and varnish the metal sheet, which we then cut and place into the "Bodymaker" machine to create a tube, which is welded length-ways. Afterwards, the tin body is crimped up and down so the edges are folded over. The body is therefore tightly sealed to the lid or the bottom. For the next step, the tins are grooved if desired, which gives the tin more stability. The tin then leaves our factory and goes to the contract filler or brand manufacturer. During the filling process, the third component for the open side of the body is tightly sealed to the body after the tin has been filled with its contents.
Folded tins are available in both square and round, as well as customized shapes. Firstly, the strips of the metal sheet are printed and varnished, then stamped and bent into the desired shape. The ends are then laterally turned over (folded) and tightly sealed together. With folded tins, the joints are clearly visible and perceptible, however, printing and finishes can be aligned exactly on top of them. Our tins with customized decoration are referred to our certified partner because we cannot accommodate them with the facilities at our Thun factory.
