Child-Resistant Flip-Top Tin Case Packaging (CR Mechanism Example)

Child-Resistant Flip-Top Tin Case Packaging (CR Mechanism Example)

This page presents a child-resistant flip-top tin case packaging structure example, demonstrating how a secure CR mechanism can be integrated into a compact metal format.  The tin body offers durable protection and premium shelf presence, while the flip-top CR closure supports compliance in regulated markets.

This structure is part of our  child resistant packaging solutions,  covering multiple CR mechanisms and formats.

CR Mechanism Overview

The key feature of this structure is the child-resistant flip-top mechanism.  It requires a deliberate adult action to open, helping reduce accidental access by children.  Depending on market requirements, the mechanism can be engineered as a  press-and-lift or dual-action closure.

• Adult-friendly: smooth opening experience when the correct action is applied

• Child-resistant: non-intuitive operation adds an effective safety barrier

• Consistent: stable metal structure supports repeatable CR performance

Structural Design & Materials

This packaging structure uses a metal tin case to provide strong protection, clean edges, and long-term durability.  The flip-top lid is integrated with the CR mechanism, while the internal space can be customized for different product sizes and orientations.

• Material: tinplate / metal (custom thickness options)

• Closure: flip-top lid with integrated child-resistant mechanism

• Finish: matte / gloss, soft-touch effect, metallic inks, spot UV (optional)

Optional Airtight Insert (Blister / Tray)

For products requiring additional protection and organization, this tin case can be configured with an  airtight blister insert or other insert solutions.  Inserts help secure the product, reduce movement during transit, and improve the presentation when opened.

• Airtight blister insert: supports freshness protection and odor control (structure-dependent)

• Insert customization: cavity size, layout, and count can be tailored

• Alternative inserts: molded pulp, paperboard, EVA foam (based on project requirements)

Typical Applications (Examples)

This child-resistant tin case structure is commonly applied to compact products where durability,  discretion, and compliant access control are important. Example uses may include pre-rolls,  small edibles, or other small-format items. Final compatibility depends on product dimensions and insert configuration.

If you are comparing different CR structures, you may also review our  child-resistant sliding box packaging  as an alternative mechanism example.

Customization Options

• Size & capacity: customized to your product dimensions

• Insert system: airtight blister / paperboard / molded pulp / foam options

• Branding: logo printing, embossing or debossing, full-color artwork

• Surface finishes: matte or gloss lamination, spot UV, foil stamping (optional)
