Tinplate is a thin steel sheet coated by tin that has an extremely beautiful metallic luster. | | |
Produced by electrolytically tin coating of cold-rolled low carbon flat steel and can be supplied as | | |
continuous annealed (CA) or batch annealed (BA), single reduced (SR) or double reduced (DR). | | |
A proper coating weight is selected to obtain appropriate corrosion resistance against container contents. |
Surfaces can be coated both in equal or different weights. | | | | | |
Products with various kinds of color tone are produced by combining the surface roughness of the substrate |
steel sheet. | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | |
Tinplate is often used as packaging material. Think of aerosols/spray cans, beverage cans, bottle caps | |
and crown corks, but also paint cans as well as wrapping paper for chocolate and candies. | | |
| | | | | | | | | |
Tinplate is very well-suited for recycling purposes, as opposed to plastic and other synthetic packaging | |
materials. Like many other metals, tinplate is 100% recyclable. The sustainable and circular character of |
tinplate contributes to the large-scale usage of tinplate as packaging material, such as in the food industry. |
