What Are Seamless 'Push To Open' Large Letter Tins?

Seamless tins are made from a single piece of metal, meaning no visible joints and a smooth finish. By staying under 25 mm thick, these tins qualify for Royal Mail’s Large Letter service—perfect for budget-friendly shipping. The push-to-open mechanism adds a neat alternative to screw-top jars: simply press one side of the lid to release it.

Why Choose Push-to-Open Lids?

Unlike traditional screw-top jars, the push-to-open lid provides a more premium unboxing experience. Simply press one side of the lid, and it gently lifts to reveal the contents.

It’s simple, satisfying, and memorable for your customers.

Environmental & Sustainability of This Packaging

Their seamless structure reduces material waste during production and enhances the overall look of the packaging. Also a great selling point with more and more eco conscious customers.

A Tin That Can Be Sent As a Royal Mail Large Letter

Thanks to the compact 73 mm x 21 mm size, these tins qualify for Royal Mail’s Large Letter format. This allows you to:

  • Ship 1–3 tins via Large Letter format
  • Save on postage costs
  • Offer more competitive pricing
  • Reduce packaging bulk and waste

A Royal Mail Large Letter can measure up to 35.3 cm in length, 25 cm in width, and 2.5 cm in thickness, with a maximum weight of 750 g. Items that fit within these dimensions and weight limits qualify for cheaper postage than a standard parcel.

Yes, you can send small items in a letter or as a Royal Mail Large Letter, provided they meet the size and weight limits. For a Large Letter, the thickness must be 25 mm or less, and the length and width must also fit within Royal Mail’s guidelines. This is why our 50 ml push-to-open tins, at just 21 mm thick, can be posted without the higher parcel costs.

Tin containers are widely considered an environmentally friendly packaging option because they are highly recyclable. In most cases, they can be placed in standard household recycling. Once recycled, the metal retains most of its quality meaning the recycling process can be repeated multiple times, making tin a sustainable alternative to many single-use materials.
