Paperboard tub with a removable metal lid
Product Description
Packaging detail | What to confirm before ordering |
|---|---|
Fill capacity | Give the volume you sell and the clearance you need under the lid. Ask for the usable fill volume and the capacity measured to the brim. |
Rim and lid fit | Match the rim diameter and profile to the lid. If you already run a closing head, send its drawing or a tub and lid that work on your line. |
Food-contact lining | Share your recipe type, filling temperature and frozen storage conditions. Request the liner specification and food-contact documentation for your sales market. |
Artwork and finish | Specify the artwork for the tub and the finish you want on the metal lid. On a full-size proof, keep the flavor name below the lid edge and the barcode clear of the wrap seam. |
Run several samples through your usual filling, closing and freezing steps. Use the flavor with the largest inclusions to check clearance under the lid. After freezing, open one tub and press the lid back into place. Check that the rim holds its shape, then inspect the base seam for seepage and the sidewall for soft spots as condensation forms. Pack a second set in your shipping carton to check that pressure from the layer above does not loosen or dent the lids.
A US pint is about 473 mL. If 500 mL is the brimful capacity, that leaves about 27 mL above a pint before the lid is fitted. Check the clearance with the actual lid and recipe. If your filler portions by weight, trial each recipe because the amount of air incorporated changes the volume of a given weight.
A plain lift-off lid can be removed and replaced without leaving a visible trace. If your retailer needs evidence of first opening, include a compatible inner seal or tamper-evident band in the sample request. Check that it stays intact through freezing and opens cleanly when cold.
Yes, when the tubs use the same approved rim and lid specification. A shared lid and a different printed wrap for each flavor let you order lids together. Give the quantity for each printed design so BioPack can quote the minimums and setup costs separately.
No. The pack includes a metal lid. Any biodegradability claim for the paperboard body needs evidence for its finished construction, including the lining and adhesives, and must identify the disposal conditions covered by that evidence.
Send BioPack your target fill volume, quantity by flavor, delivery destination and any drawing for your existing tub or lid. For a comparable price per finished pack, ask for the tub, metal lid, optional seal, artwork setup and freight as separate items. Request a sample and pricing for your ice cream tubs.
