Tin packaging has always carried a premium quality feel. Customers hold onto tins — they reuse them, display them, and remember the brand that came inside. But for many businesses, the idea of getting their own logo printed on a tin has felt out of reach, either too expensive, too complicated, or requiring order quantities that simply don't make sense.
At LD Packaging Mall, we've changed that. Our branded tin printing service lets UK businesses of all sizes add their logo, artwork, or design to off-the-shelf stock tins — with a minimum order of just 50 units, multiple printing methods to suit every budget, and fast UK turnaround.
Why Branded Tin Packaging Works
Packaging is part of your product. When a customer receives a beautifully printed tin with your logo on it, they don't just see a container — they see a brand that takes presentation seriously. That perception directly influences repeat purchases, gifting appeal, and how your product sits on a retail shelf.
Tins also have a longevity that cardboard and plastic simply can't match. They're durable, reusable, and recyclable — and customers keep them. Every time they reach for that tin on their desk or shelf, your brand is visible. That's marketing that keeps working long after the original product is gone.
Our Stock Tin Range
We stock a wide range of tin shapes, sizes, and colours ready for branding. The range includes square, rectangular, round, and oval tins — making it suitable for an extensive variety of products including:
- Candles and home fragrance
- Tea, coffee, and spices
- Confectionery and baked goods
- Cosmetics and beauty products
- Craft materials and stationery
- Corporate gifts and promotional products
- Mailout and subscription boxes
Whether you need a small round tin for lip balm or a large rectangular tin for a premium food hamper, there's a stock shape in our range that will work for your product. Custom liners and dividers in foam, paperboard, or plastic can also be made to fit your specific requirements.
Printing Methods — Choose What's Right for Your Brand
We offer four main printing methods for branded tins, each suited to different budgets, quantities, and finish requirements.
Foil Printing Foil blocking applies a metallic or coloured foil directly to the tin surface, creating a high-end, tactile finish. It's ideal for logos, brand names, or simple design elements where you want a premium, eye-catching result. Particularly effective on plain silver or black tins.
Screen Printing Screen printing applies ink directly onto the tin using a stencil process, producing vivid, durable colour. It's well suited to bold, graphic designs and works across most of our tin shapes and sizes. A reliable, cost-effective option for businesses ordering in volume.
Digital Printing Digital printing allows for full-colour, detailed artwork including photographs and complex gradients. It's the most flexible option for intricate designs and works well for smaller runs where screen printing may not be economical.
Vinyl Stickers Custom vinyl stickers offer a fast, flexible, and low-MOQ branding option. Die-cut to any shape or size, they can be applied directly to any tin in our range. Available in metallic, holographic, full-colour, clear, 3D, and UV finishes — with no minimum order quantity. This is the quickest route to a branded tin, with no large upfront commitment.
Low Minimum Orders — Accessible for Every Business
One of the biggest barriers to branded tin packaging has always been minimum order quantities. Large MOQs don't work for startups, small businesses, or brands testing a new product line.
Our branded tin service starts from just 50 units for printed tins, making it genuinely accessible for businesses at every stage. For vinyl sticker branding, there's no minimum order at all — you can brand a single tin if you need to.
As your volumes grow, our pricing scales with you. Volume discounts are available across all orders, and our team is happy to discuss pricing for larger runs.
