The history and advantages of tin cans

Tin and iron canning industry was limited by the production process and technology at the beginning, the daily production was limited, but now it has experienced long-term development and technology accumulation, with a daily output of tens of millions of yuan. To meet the increasing demand for packing. Tin containers become lighter and harder. Tin containers provide effective protection for food, drinks, paints, chemicals, tea and other products. Because tin cans are made from recyclable materials, they are environmentally safe and a better choice than plastic. Many brands have therefore turned to canned goods, encouraging reinvention. Tin can recycling has become a billion dollar industry worldwide and is one of the most successful environmental undertakings in the world.

In 1795 Napoleon would offer anyone who could find a way to keep the food for the army.

Nicholas middot, a confectioner; 1809. Appell came up with the idea of keeping food, such as wine, in glass bottles. After years of research, he developed a method of preserving food by sterilizing it and received a 12,000 franc prize from the French government.

In 1810 King George III granted Peter & Middot; Durand's patent for keeping food in glass, clay, or metal jars.

British immigrant Thomas Kensett set up a small factory in New York in 1812 to produce oysters, meat, fruits and vegetables in sealed cans.

In 1819, American Underwood opened the world's first tin can factory in Boston, opening the era of tin packaging. They cut the tinplate into a certain shape, and the craftsmen welded it into a cylinder. They added a round bottom at both ends and made a hole in the top to put the food can into the cylinder. This was the original tinplate packaging.

In 1825, Kensett patented the first tin can in the United States.

From 1947 to 1965, great progress was made in the production of tin cans and the first tin - free sheet was produced

Tin iron was coated with tin, so it was not easy to rust. This type of coated steel plate was known in The Chinese as "tinplate". For a long time it was believed that since the tinplate used in making Macao was imported, it was so called "tinplate". For example, in the past, China used to use this tin plate to make the lamp holder, shaped like a horse's mouth, so it was called "tinplate". The name "tinplate" was not exact, so it was officially named as tinplate at the 1973 Chinese Tinplate Conference, and the name "tinplate" was no longer used in official documents.

Tin and iron packaging because of its good sealing, preservation, light, robustness and unique metal decoration charm, decided that it has a wide range of coverage in the packaging container industry, is the international general packaging varieties. With the continuous enrichment of various CC materials, DR materials and chrome-plated iron, the development of packaging products and technology has been promoted.

Therefore, countries generally attach importance to this kind of packaging container, is a very large amount of metal packaging plate in the world.

According to the different requirements of packaging industry, tin and iron material thickness, tin plating, mechanical properties are different needs. Since its inception, tinplate has been in the direction of thinning. One is to use less tin, even without tin, one is to reduce the thickness of the tinplate substrate. Its purpose is to adapt to the change of canning products and reduce the canning cost.

With the continuous improvement and perfection of tin - iron printing technology and processing technology, tin - iron packaging is more and more widely used. At present, The production capacity of tin and iron in China is constantly improving, and its import will be gradually reduced. Except for some high-grade products, a small amount of imports are still needed. The changing demand of international packaging industry puts forward higher requirements on the quantity and quality of metal packaging.
