Do you know the difference between the packaging of a tin box and a frosted iron box?

1. What is a Tin Box made of Tinplate material?

Tin plate, also known as tin plated iron, is a common term for electroplated tin thin steel plate, abbreviated as SPTE, which refers to cold-rolled low-carbon steel plate or strip coated with commercial pure tin on both sides. Tin mainly plays a role in preventing corrosion and rusting. It combines the strength and formability of steel with the corrosion resistance, solderability, and aesthetic appearance of tin in a single material, with the characteristics of corrosion resistance, non toxicity, high strength, and good ductility. Tin plate is an iron sheet coated with a layer of tin on the surface, which is not easy to rust, also known as tinned iron.

2. What is an Iron Box made of frosted iron material?

A frosted iron box is a process of making an object with a previously smooth surface less smooth, allowing light to shine on the surface and form a diffuse reflection. So frosted iron makes it opaque, while frosted leather coats make their surface less shiny compared to regular leather. Matte iron, also known as silver glossy iron, is generally suitable for transparent iron printing, which is the white ink printing process introduced by the editor before. For example, tea cans are mostly made of frosted iron. Generally, when printing, a layer of white background is applied to the iron box, and then color printing is carried out on this layer of white background. This way, the printed color will be more full and bright, so many people choose a tin box as the outer Packaging of their products.

From the above two introductions, it is not difficult for everyone to notice that the frosted iron material seems to be better than the tinplate material. The price of frosted iron is generally a bit more expensive than ordinary tinplate, and the hardness and stretchability of frosted iron are not as good as ordinary tinplate, so stretching cans do not use frosted iron materials. In fact, the innovation of the shape of the frosted Iron Box Packaging can play a role in revitalizing the product, attracting consumer attention, and promoting product sales.

The iron box made of tinplate is too saturated with bright colors, and they like the texture of the iron itself. The frosted iron box is very satisfying for these people's aesthetic and pursuit. Matte iron, also known as silver iron, has a sandy surface, so we call it matte iron. Matte iron is much more expensive than tinplate and is generally used for unprinted iron box packaging. If printing is to be done, it is through iron printing, which can present the granular texture of matte iron. But if it's spot color printing, you can consider tinplate. If it's white ink four color printing, you can choose frosted iron. That kind of exposed frosted iron looks good. So, when customizing a tin box, customers need to clearly state which printing methods are used and what the effect should be, such as whether to use four colors or spot colors, glossy or matte, and factors such as frosted iron when using tin material.
