The Eco range
One material.
Nothing to separate.
A tin built entirely from tinplate — no plastic liner, no laminate, no adhesive.
Plastic-free cannabis packaging, child-resistant to 16 CFR 1700.20 and recyclable in the same stream as a food can.
The mechanism
Why steel recycles
when other packaging doesn’t.
Recycling is a sorting problem before it is a materials problem. What follows is why steel survives the sort — a different claim from calling a tin recyclable, and the one that decides whether it actually gets recycled.
It’s magnetic.
Steel is pulled out of mixed waste automatically at the sorting facility.
No manual separation, no consumer decision, no wish-cycling.
It’s one material.
Nothing to peel apart.
Mixed-material packaging has to be separated before it can be processed, which is usually why it isn’t.
It doesn’t degrade.
Steel recycles indefinitely without loss of quality.
The same steel comes back as steel, not as something lower down the chain.
The Eco specification is the option built to that description: all tinplate, nothing else in it, at the same minimum and the same certification as anything else we make.
The numbers
The highest of any packaging material.
Pulled from mixed waste mechanically.
What it costs to make steel from steel.
Steel returns as steel, at the same grade.
US rates run lower than global — around 70% — because of collection infrastructure, not the material.
The difference
The same tin,
without the liner.
An Eco line is not a different product. It is the same certified closure, specified in one material.
Standard range
Tinplate body and lid, with a plastic inner liner or jar.
The body and the lid are steel and separate magnetically. The liner is one part, and it is there because it is doing something.
Eco range
The same certified mechanism, plastic removed entirely. All tinplate.
One material in, one material out. Nothing to take apart before it goes in the steel stream.
Which of the two you specify is a conversation about the product, and it takes about a minute. Ask, and we’ll tell you which build we’d put it in — including when that answer is the standard one.
The lines
Where it’s
already running.
The specification is not a separate catalogue — it can be applied to any format we make. These are the lines already built to it. Size ranges, not per-size dimensions; those are still being verified against physical samples.
All-metal round body. Gummies, mints and balms.
Hinged lid, no liner. Pre-rolls and chocolate.
Squeeze the front of the base, or all three sides, and lift. The lock is formed into the metal — no button, no separate part.
Upright flip-top. Mints and micro-dose formats.
Sealed all-metal tube. Single pre-rolls, terpene retention.
Samples
Hold one before
you specify it.
We’ll send the Eco lines and their standard counterparts, so you can feel what the liner was doing.
