Tin Mill Technology
Steel is one of the leading packaging materials and is used for food
cans, shipping containers, and aerosol and paint cans. It is the
material of choice for many packers and shippers because of its
strength, light weight, versatility, recyclability, and resistance to
tampering and flames.
New Steel Technologies
Intense product development work is underway to improve steel
packaging technologies. Advancements in downgauging, easy-open ends,
shapes and sizes, as well as self-heating cans, are making steel cans
more attractive to food processing companies and more convenient for
consumers. New coatings add to the steel can’s protection of its
contents while extending shelf life.
