0.18mm/0.16mm/0.35mm Food Grade ETP & TFS with Enhanced Alkali & Rust Resistance

This specialized line of Electrolytic Tin Plate (ETP) and Tin-Free Steel (TFS) is engineered for the critical role of manufacturing food can ends, lids, and bottom caps where exposure to corrosive contents is a constant challenge. The product is formulated to provide superior, dual-layer protection: first, against external environmental rust, and second, against internal chemical attack from alkaline or acidic food products like tomato paste, certain vegetables, sauces, and fruits. Available in precise, industry-standard thicknesses (0.16mm, 0.18mm, 0.35mm), this material delivers the optimal balance of structural strength for secure double-seaming and economic material usage. It serves as the reliable foundation for ensuring long-term food safety, flavor preservation, and container integrity throughout the supply chain and shelf life.

• Dual-Action Corrosion Defense: Specifically engineered to resist both atmospheric rust and internal corrosion from aggressive food contents, significantly reducing the risk of package failure.
• Precision-Gauge Consistency: Produced in tightly controlled thin gauges (0.15-0.46mm) to optimize material yield and cost-efficiency while maintaining the mechanical integrity required for can sealing.
• Tailored Internal Coatings: Designed to be paired with specialized internal lacquers (e.g., 202, 300, 401, 603 codes) that provide product-specific barriers against sulfide staining and chemical migration.
• Excellent Forming Capability: Offered in a comprehensive range of tempers (T1-T5, DR7-DR9) to facilitate complex stamping and deep-drawing processes for end manufacturing without material fracture.
• Superior Surface for Decoration: Available in various finishes (Matte, Stone, Bright) to ensure excellent adhesion for external protective varnishes and high-quality lithographic printing for branding.

Implementing this chemically resistant tinplate directly enhances production reliability and end-product safety. It minimizes spoilage and recall risks by providing a robust barrier between the food and the metal. The material's lightweight nature reduces shipping costs, and its 100% recyclability supports corporate sustainability objectives. Furthermore, the ability to customize specifications—from temper and coating weight to internal lacquer type—allows for a perfectly tailored solution for any food product, from acidic fruits to alkaline prepared foods.
