How is tin box packaging used in the food, pharmaceutical and other industries

2024-09-27 16:20:54

In the food industry, tin cans can protect food well and prevent the invasion of oxidation, bacteria and other contaminants. Tin boxes are moisture-proof, mildew-proof, insect-proof and anti-oxidation. They can maintain the freshness and taste of food and are very suitable for storing some perishable foods such as cakes, candy, nuts, tea, etc. For example, metal tin boxes for coffee, tea or candy are common in the market, and the independent 3D rendering of red tin can box is very suitable for bulk food or product packaging design. New Year's tin cans can be used for packaging of baked cakes, biscuits, candies and other foods. They are made of tinplate, round in shape, offset printed, and can be printed with LOGO. The brand is cans, and the main sales areas are Europe, South America, and North America. In addition, there are also Christmas tree-shaped tin boxes in the 19 Christmas food packaging. With eye-catching optical illusions and elegant patterns, they can be directly stuffed under the Christmas tree or hung on the Christmas tree.

In the pharmaceutical industry, tinplate boxes are one of the important materials for pharmaceutical metal packaging. The upstream of the pharmaceutical metal packaging industry mainly includes metal materials such as aluminum and tin. Tin packaging is usually used for some drugs that require higher anti-corrosion properties. Pharmaceutical tin box packaging can be moisture-proof and moisture-proof, and it is important to store and ensure the quality of drugs. For example, children's medical travel sets use durable and stackable tin packaging to make supplies easy to find. Although the tin box cannot be too fancy, some creative packaging images can be designed in combination with the characteristics of the drug. As an important resource in the industry, pharmaceutical tin boxes used to store and ensure the quality of drugs are necessarily important. Tinplate boxes can be divided into mooncake boxes, boxes, candy boxes, etc. according to their functions. The tin box packaging of medicines has a wide range of packaging applications, whether it is or, or other medicines can be packaged in tin boxes.

What are the advantages of tin box packaging in the food industry

Tin box packaging has many advantages in the food industry. First of all, tin boxes have good light protection. Light will cause changes in proteins and amino acids, and will also cause a large loss of vitamin C. The opaque nature of tin boxes makes the preservation rate of vitamin C high, which can better preserve the taste and aroma of food. For example, the loss of vitamin C in milk in transparent glass bottles is 14 times higher than that in dark bottles, and food packaged in tin boxes can effectively reduce the changes in food quality and grade under light conditions. Secondly, tin boxes have good sealing properties. The barrier of packaging containers to air and other volatile gases is important for preserving nutrition and sensory quality. Metal cans with low oxygen permeability have a better effect on preserving vitamin C, among which iron cans, that is, tin-plated tinplate boxes, have a particularly good preservation effect. The barrier of tin boxes to the outside air can better protect food from external pollution and influence, making food safe and healthy. Furthermore, pure tin tea cans generally cost around 200 yuan, which is cheap and has no metallic smell. In addition, the can body is relatively thick, and the preservation function is much better than other materials. Tin tea cans have the functions of anti-oxidation, light avoidance, and dampness, etc., which can keep the color, aroma and taste of tea for a long time. The logo of the food manufacturer can also be marked on the tin box, which is convenient for people to buy, carry and store after packaging. The tin box also has good printing performance, the pattern logo is bright and beautiful, and the obtained packaging container is eye-catching, which is an excellent sales packaging. Metal containers can be made into various shapes according to different needs to meet the packaging needs of different products. For example, the moon cake tin box packaging has won the favor of consumers. The outer packaging of the moon cake tin box is usually coated with a layer of tin, which makes the whole moon cake box look very textured and precious, and it is very face-saving when giving gifts. After eating the moon cakes, the moon cake box can also be given to children to play with or used to store small items, which is very practical.

What is the role of tin box packaging in the pharmaceutical industry

In the pharmaceutical industry, tin box packaging also plays an important role. Drugs often go through a long period of production, transportation, storage and use. Improper packaging may change the physical or chemical properties of drugs, reduce their effectiveness, make them ineffective, or cause adverse reactions. Tin box packaging has a protective function, which can ensure that the drugs in the container are not penetrated or leaked, and can also block the contact between the outside air, light, moisture, heat, foreign matter and microorganisms and the drugs. At the same time, drug packaging has a buffering effect, which can protect the drugs from various external forces such as vibration, impact and extrusion during transportation and storage. Drug packaging should be convenient for patients and clinical use, and can help doctors and patients use drugs scientifically and safely. Labels are an important part of drug packaging. They are used to introduce the basic content and commodity characteristics of specific drugs to the public in a scientific and accurate manner. Drug instructions should contain basic scientific information such as the safety and effectiveness of drugs. The packaging mark is a special mark designed to help patients identify drugs. The over-the-counter drug label, instruction manual, inner packaging and outer packaging must be printed with the over-the-counter drug proprietary logo. The upstream of the pharmaceutical metal packaging industry mainly includes metal materials such as aluminum and tin. Tin packaging is usually used for some drugs that require higher anti-corrosion properties. China's pharmaceutical metal packaging industry has achieved remarkable development in the past few decades, gradually meeting the pharmaceutical industry's demand for high-quality and safe packaging.

For another example, precious Chinese medicinal materials are suitable for tin cans. Tin cans have the dual functions of sealing and preservation, which can prevent the loss of important nutrients in medicinal materials. Since ancient times, the palace has used tin cans to preserve precious Chinese medicinal materials. Some large Chinese medicine stores in modern times also use extra-large tin cans to store medicinal materials. There are also butter biscuits. Qianku.com provides free downloads of butter biscuits in tin boxes PNG pictures, which shows that butter biscuits can also be packaged in tin boxes, which are both beautiful and can maintain the quality of biscuits. In addition, moon cakes are also suitable for tin box packaging. The printing of moon cake tin box packaging is very delicate and high-end. There is a chemical called "tin" on the surface of the moon cake tin box, which makes the whole moon cake box very layered and precious. Customers are very considerate when choosing gifts. After buying moon cakes at home, they can still keep the small box for other things, which is very practical.
