How is it packaged? is there metal contained in the inner packaging that can interfere with the ionic properties of the zinc?

Unfortunately I don't know yet. I live in Mexico and this item couldn't be shipped so, I sent it to my sister's house in Arizona and another sister brought it to Mexico. I won't see it until Sunday. I'll get back to you then.

It's packaged exactly as shown. Plastic bag. I've used it to make cosmetics with sunscreen properties and it has worked fabulously - but Wear A Mask! Seriously - this stuff is very fine and gets airborne.

Just to clarify, it is my understanding that the old "bicycle" packaging is zeolite (exothermic), and the new red packaging is kaolin (non-exothermic mineral). If someone from the manufacturer would please confirm that the packaging reflects the contents it would be helpful.

It is sealed and pretty watertight, but it is plastic; rodents can chew through it, and then your stuff will be contaminated. For your intended use you need a metal container.

Shiny box but inside shouldn't be the aluminum wrap, clear plastic wrap is good. The one with aluminum wrap is not good.

It was packaged in plastic bubble wrap (I believe, can't remember at this point). Bottom line, the product appears to be stronger and more durable the the original flange my wife was replacing. She's been using it for months now without problems.

I do not know if it has zinc. You cannot buy it in stores any more.has zinc in it. I do wonder why it was taken off the market.

I store mine in the original plastic container it was shipped in. It keeps just fine at room temperature and has not separated or anything like that. Hope this helps! :)

The mix can contain copper and other minerals, all are listed in the package. I don't have the paperwork anymore, or I would list all the minerals. I don't believe salt is one of them.

I checked with my daughter-in-law who is a chemist and she said it DOES NOT contain zinc. She is my go to gal for information like this. By the way this product works better then the Poligrip Powder too, ALL day hold and I mean ALL DAY. Hope this helps

it's all metal on the inside. However, the stopper on top (to seal the thermos) is made of plastic.

I think there is a date stamped on the edge, but mine has lasted for years, as I don't use it often. It still seems fine. Zinc will never spoil, but the olive oil base might. Give them a call to find out: 800-603-6100. Also, badgerbalm.com

When I purchased this item from Pinnacle Nutrition, it was enclosed in a sealed bubble wrap. The cover was also sealed with plastic.

This is a metal container. If they got a plastic one it wasn't this pill container sent/ordered
