Metal Nicotine Pouch Cans

Take your nicotine pouch experience to the next level with one of our metal cans. Newly launched and exclusive to Northerner, they’re designed to be a sleek, sturdy, and reusable alternative to standard plastic packaging.

What Are These Empty Metal Cans For?

Northerner's new line of metal travel tins will fit seamlessly into your daily routine if you’re an adult nicotine consumer looking for a more subtle and sustainable way to carry around your nicotine pouches or snus.

Our design boasts a number of key improvements over the single-use plastic cans you’d be familiar with from other nicotine pouch brands. These include being:

  • More durable (made from lightweight aluminum); 
  • More reliable (an air-resistant seal ensures your pouches stay fresh); 
  • More stylish (with your choice of a glossy black or smooth silver finish); 
  • More environmentally friendly (when purchased with a FRE Mega Pack or one of VELO’s exclusive McLaren tins containing 100 pouches each, you reduce the amount of single-use plastic in your order and have 5 refills, ready to go).

Add to this list, the fact that every one of our metal cans has a built-in disposal compartment for used pouches—which some brands offer, but not all—and our empty metal travel tins become an even more convenient option as well.  

Step-By-Step Instructions for How to Use Them

You might be surprised at how quickly you adjust to using a metal nicotine pouch can and, once you make the switch, you won’t go back to plastic. All you have to do to use them is: 

  1. Transfer up to 20 nicotine pouches or snus into one of our empty metal tins. 
  2. Make sure to recycle the original plastic can. 
  3. Enjoy your pouches as you usually would. 
  4. When you’re finished with a pouch, store it in the lid’s waste compartment. 
  5. Empty the waste compartment when it gets too full, then repeat steps 1-5!
