Premium Empty Glue Tins for Secure Industrial Packaging
When packaging industrial adhesives, sealants, and PVC cements, the reliability of your container is just as critical as the quality of the product inside. Substandard packaging can lead to solvent evaporation, premature curing, and hazardous leaks. SeFluid manufactures highly durable empty glue tins designed specifically to meet the stringent demands of the chemical and adhesive manufacturing sectors.
Our tinplate containers provide an impermeable barrier against light, oxygen, and moisture, ensuring your adhesives maintain their optimal viscosity and shelf life from the factory floor to the end user.

Why Choose SeFluid Empty Glue Tins?
Adhesives and solvent-based chemicals require specialized packaging that plastic containers often cannot provide. Our empty glue tins are engineered with several industrial-grade advantages:
-
Exceptional Chemical Resistance: Crafted from high-grade tinplate, these tins resist degradation from harsh solvents commonly found in rubber cements, PVC glues, and contact adhesives.
-
Airtight Sealing Cap systems: Available with tightly threaded screw caps that prevent the evaporation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
-
Integrated Applicators: We offer cap configurations that include built-in brushes or daubers, allowing for clean, precise application directly from the tin.
-
Superior Structural Integrity: The robust metal construction protects against punctures, impact drops, and deformation during transit.

Versatile Applications Across Industries
Our empty glue tins are the packaging of choice for a wide variety of chemical formulations. The unlined interior is particularly well-suited for solvent-based products that might otherwise dissolve internal epoxy coatings.
Common applications include:
-
Plumbing & Construction: PVC, CPVC, and ABS pipe cements and primers.
-
Woodworking: Industrial liquid hide glues and specialized wood contact adhesives.
-
Automotive & Footwear: Rubber cements, vulcanizing fluids, and neoprene adhesives.
-
Marine & Roofing: Specialized waterproof sealants and bonding agents.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can SeFluid customize the length of the brush attached to the cap?
Yes. We understand that different viscosities require different applicators. We can customize the stem length and the bristle material of the brush or dauber to ensure it reaches the bottom of the empty glue tins efficiently, minimizing product waste for your customers.
Are these tins shipped lined or unlined?
For most solvent-based adhesives, unlined tinplate is the standard requirement to prevent the solvent from attacking the liner. However, if your specific adhesive formulation is water-based and prone to causing rust, SeFluid can provide specialized internal coatings.
Do you supply the tins and caps separately?
We supply the empty glue tins and their corresponding applicator caps as a complete set, ensuring a perfect thread match and an airtight seal. They are packaged securely in bulk for easy integration into your filling machinery.
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for bulk purchases?
Our production lines are optimized for both medium and large-scale industrial orders. Please reach out to the SeFluid sales engineering team with your specific volume requirements, and we will provide a competitive quotation and lead time.
