Tin production
Almost all steps in the tin production require manual
labour.
The only part done mechanically occurs right at the beginning of
production, after the design has been agreed. This design is printed on large
tin plates at the printers. These tin plates are then cut into stripes by the
cutting machine in order to get the individual components of the
tin.
This important production step makes sure that the person using this tin
cannot be cut by the sharp edge and also serves as a means to attach the
bottom.
Simultaneously, the bottom and lid of the tin are cut from the
tin plate. Each bottom is placed by hand in a machine, which embosses it with
the logo ChaCult. Each lid is formed into its correct shape by another
machine.
After all individual components were formed, they are assembled
by hand and the finished tin is created.
It now reaches the quality control,
which is done manually as well as mechanically. Each tin is individually wrapped
in a plastic bag before being assembled in a box for shipment.
Our factory
employs approximately 550 employees and reaches a volume of
2 – 3 million
tins per month.
