Tinplate Product, Tarapur Plant, JSWSCPL

Being non-toxic in nature and because of its ability to resist bacteria, UV radiation, retain original colour, flavour and aroma of the contents, Tinplate is extensively used as a packaging medium for storage of canned foods, juices and other beverages. Other than edibles, Tinplate has paved its way into the packaging of paints, aerosols, battery jackets, chemicals, closures, etc. It is 100% bio-degradable and 100% recyclable, and thus, a highly sustainable packaging medium.

Tinplate is typically a thin steel sheet with a coating of tin applied to the either side through an electrolytic process. Tinplate exhibits high strength and formability – imparted by the base steel, and corrosion resistance – imparted by the tin coating. The smooth surface finish aids printability and weldability while giving a lustrous aesthetic appeal. Over the years, Tinplate has found acceptance in numerous applications because of its beautiful appearance, light weight, low cost, easy utilization, high shape ability, different varieties, etc.
