What moves the price
For hermetic can, the drivers are valve type, pressure venting, can format, liner, print finish, oxygen transmission rate, MOQ, lid film type — the spec them differently and the same item lands at either end of the band.
Published custom-packaging pricing for metal tins is sparse, but one US-facing packaging supplier lists a 12oz metal tin at $3.40 at 500 units, falling to $1.40 at 10,000+ units, which anchors the mid-range custom-printed price curve. Another supplier notes that custom printed coffee tins usually require MOQs of 5,000–10,000 units, so the 500–999 tier is often quote-driven or available only through higher-cost digital/small-run programs. Price moves most with tinplate gauge, print method, food-contact coating, and options like windows, inserts, and seal/closure systems; direct import/OEM routes from Asia are the most realistic way to reach the lower tiers at scale
