Square Plain Tea Tin for Holiday Inn Resort Kandooma Maldives
A case study: the custom square plain tea tin series Galaxy Tin Can produced for Holiday Inn Resort Kandooma Maldives, featuring a minimalist silver metallic finish and food-grade protective lacquer.

Custom Square Plain Tea Tin Series for Luxury Maldivian Resort
For its guest rooms and luxury villa tea stations, Holiday Inn Resort Kandooma Maldives required a minimalist, highly durable, and moisture-resistant packaging solution. We engineered and manufactured this classic plain square tea tin series—combining a sleek natural tinplate finish with superior sealing performance—to deliver an elegant in-room presentation while protecting premium tea leaves from the harsh island climate.
Project Overview
The primary challenge was creating a functional yet elegant packaging solution tailored to the unique tropical climate of the Maldives. High humidity and marine salt air require exceptional corrosion resistance and airtight seals to keep loose-leaf teas and tea bags fresh. Furthermore, the client sought a clean, minimalist, and unprinted (plain) metallic aesthetic that seamlessly fits into modern luxury resort interiors while allowing flexible labeling or custom brand tags. Our team delivered a precision-formed square tinplate canister with a snug-fitting slip lid designed for long-lasting reuse and optimal freshness.
Packaging Solution
Material: Premium 0.23mm–0.25mm food-grade tinplate, offering a robust light-proof barrier to protect delicate tea leaves against light degradation and atmospheric moisture.
Structure: Classic square tin canister with smooth rounded corners, double-seam sturdy bottom construction, and a precision slip lid ensuring an airtight, easy-to-open closure.
Color & Finish: Unprinted plain metallic finish with a smooth clear protective varnish, showcasing the raw, sophisticated texture of natural tinplate while preventing rust and fingerprints.
Internal Coating: Lined with food-grade clear protective lacquer, fully compliant with FDA and EU food safety standards to prevent oxidation and ensure direct contact safety with dry food items.
Eco-Friendly & Reusable: 100% recyclable metal structure, supporting the resort’s sustainability initiatives by eliminating single-use packaging for in-room guest amenities.
Results & Feedback
The plain square tea tin series successfully enhanced the in-room beverage experience at Holiday Inn Resort Kandooma Maldives. The clean silver aesthetics aligned perfectly with the resort’s modern coastal décor. Resort operations highlighted the tin’s outstanding performance in resisting island humidity, maintaining tea aroma, and standing up to frequent daily use and housekeeping handling. The stackable square design also optimized storage efficiency in resort pantries and hospitality logistics.
