Why Most OEM Projects Stall Before Launch

Suppliers demand 50,000+ MOQ before you've validated demand

You need 5,000 units to test a new flavor or enter a new state. Most manufacturers laugh at that volume. We don't. Our pilot runs start at 10,000 units with the same CR certification as full production.

CR certification delays your launch by 6–12 weeks

You sourced a "CR-ready" can, then discovered the test report was generic and customs rejected it. We ship ISO 8317 + 16 CFR 1700.20 documentation with every batch — lab name, test date, batch number, and conformance statement included.

Your packaging looks like a generic catalog item

Off-the-shelf cans with a sticker slapped on signal "budget brand" to retailers. We offer Pantone-matched screen printing, foil stamping, and laser engraving from 10,000 units — so your shelf presence competes with ZYN from day one.

What MANKE Builds for Your Brand

End-to-end packaging solutions — not just cans, but the compliance, branding, and automation behind them, so you can focus on building a brand people remember.

Custom Mold Development

In-house CAD/CAM design and CNC machining for bespoke snus can geometries. CR 3-layer structures (base + collar + lid) validated for adult open/close force balance at the drawing stage.

Decoration & Branding

Screen print, hot foil, and laser engraving — all Pantone-matched from 10,000 units. Pre-press proofs within 48 hours of artwork submission.

Compliance Bundling

Food-grade material statements, REACH, ISO 8317, and 16 CFR 1700.20 documentation shipped with every batch. No extra charge. Notarized translations for EU/UK customs available on request.

Packaging Automation

Turnkey capping and sealing line integration. M-PCK series semi-automatic and desktop electric cappers validated for MANKE can thread standards. Buy cans + equipment as a bundle.

The OEM Vector: 4 Phases to Market

A deterministic process refined across 150+ B2B projects. No guesswork, no surprises at customs.

01

Architectural Brief

We assess material compatibility, CR mechanism geometry, and target-market compliance requirements (REACH, TPD). You receive a validated engineering spec before any tooling commitment.

  • Material & Capacity Mapping
  • CR Mechanism Design Review
  • Compliance Checklist by Market
02

Prototype Milling

Soft-tool single-cavity mold produces functional samples in 7–10 working days. Test fit, finish, and CR open/close torque before approving full tooling.

Tolerance: ±0.05mm
03

Pilot Formulation

10,000-unit pilot run validates mold thermodynamics, decoration alignment, and batch-level CR consistency. Every unit is torque-tested and documented.

04

Mass Scaling

Hardened steel multi-cavity molds deployed to automated lines. Real-time QC photos shared via your account manager. Documentation bundled for customs.

Frequently asked questions

What is the minimum order quantity for custom snus cans?
Our standard MOQ for custom PP plastic snus cans is 10,000 units per SKU. This applies to both standard and CR-certified variants. For aluminum cans, MOQ starts at 500 units. Pilot runs of 10,000 units are common for first-time brands testing a new market.
How long does a full OEM project take from spec to shipment?
A standard private-label OEM project takes 6–8 weeks from sample approval to first production shipment. Custom mold development adds 2–3 weeks. Stock mold pilot runs can ship in 14–18 working days from artwork approval. Rush programs are available for an additional fee.
Do you provide CR certification documentation with every order?
Yes. CR certification documentation is bundled with every shipment at no extra charge. Reports include the independent lab name, test date, batch number, and conformance statement. We can also provide notarized translations for EU and UK customs upon request.
Can I get physical samples before committing to tooling?
Absolutely. We ship stock or digitally-printed prototype samples within 7–10 working days. You only pay for shipping. Sample approval is required before any tooling deposit. Custom-color or custom-print samples take 10–14 days because they require a small pilot run.
What decoration options are available at 10,000 units?
At 10,000 units, you can choose from single-color screen printing, multi-color CMYK printing, foil stamping, and laser engraving. Pantone matching is included. For complex multi-color designs, our pre-press team provides a print-ready proof within 48 hours of receiving your vector artwork.
Do you help with packaging design beyond the can itself?
Yes. Beyond the primary container, we can recommend and source outer cartons, insert cards, and shrink-band graphics through our packaging design partners. This is billed separately from the can order and is typically arranged after the can specification is finalized.
