Tin packaging from Independent Can is a sustainable choice your brand and customers can feel good about. With their timeless beauty, our tins are often reused, refilled, and displayed - eliminating the need for secondary packaging. If disposed of, steel cans are easily separated at recycling facilities due to their magnetic properties. Tin is infinitely recyclable without any loss in quality or durability.
