Advantages
A number of factors make tin cans ideal containers for food. Metal tin cans are stronger than cartons or plastic, and less fragile than glass, protecting the product in transit and preventing leakage or spillage, while also reducing the need for secondary packaging.
Metal packaging offer 100% barrier protection against light, water and air, and metal cans without resealable closures are among the most tamper-evident of all packaging materials. Tinplate cans preserve and protect the product from damage by light, oxidation, extremes of temperature and contamination, safeguarding flavour, appearance and quality from factory to final consumer. Food packed in tinplate cans has equivalent vitamin content to freshly prepared, without needing preserving agents. Tin cans also extend the product’s shelf-life, allowing longer sell-by and use-by dates and reducing waste.
As an ambient packaging medium, metal tin cans do not require cooling in the supply chain, simplifying logistics and storage, and saving energy and cost.
