What are Clic Clac promotional tins and how does their opening mechanism work?
Clic Clac tins are round, all-metal containers made from tinplate — a globally popular format for distributing small mints and sweets. Their unique patented mechanism works on a pressure principle: to open, simply press your thumb on the centre of the lid, which releases with a characteristic click ('clic') and springs open. To close, gently squeeze the opposite edges of the lid along its rim, causing the tin to snap firmly shut again ('clac'). This playful system keeps users engaged, encourages repeated handling of the tin, and increases the frequency of exposure to your logo.
Why are mint tins the ideal low-cost gift for mass distribution at trade fairs and conferences?
Mint tins combine a very accessible price point, compact dimensions and immediate practical value. During long business meetings, conferences, exhibitions or after a restaurant lunch, everyone appreciates a quick breath freshener. The tin fits easily into a jacket pocket, handbag or car compartment. Clients keep it on their desk in a visible spot even after the original mints run out — and often refill it repeatedly, ensuring long-lasting marketing exposure at minimal cost.
Which printing technologies are most suitable for branding metal and plastic mint tins?
All-metal Clic Clac tins and rectangular slide-top tins offer a perfectly flat surface on the lid that is ideally suited for branding. Single- and two-colour corporate logos are applied using precise pad printing or screen printing with two-component inks. Where your corporate artwork requires a full-colour motif, photograph or complex visual, high-resolution digital UV printing is the ideal choice. For a truly luxurious, premium look on metal gift editions, we recommend precision laser engraving — a permanent mark that will never wear off mechanically.
