Product Spotlights
As a leading manufacturer from Shandong Sino Steel Co., Ltd., established in 2018 with a factory spanning 10,000-30,000 square meters and a dedicated team of 101-200 employees, we take pride in offering premium Single Cold Reduced Food Grade Tinplate with a thickness of 0.18mm and a balanced tin coating of 1.1/1.1 g/m². This product is specially engineered for the production of food cans, ensuring superior corrosion resistance, excellent solderability, and compliance with international food safety standards. Our commitment to quality is backed by ISO9000 and ISO19011:2000 certifications, and our annual export value of US$2.5 million to US$5 million reflects the trust of global clients across North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.
Our Single Cold Reduced (SCR) Tinplate is manufactured using advanced cold rolling technology, which provides precise thickness control and a uniform surface. The T2 temper grade offers the ideal balance of hardness and ductility, making it suitable for deep drawing and forming processes required in food can production. The 1.1/1.1 tin coating ensures effective protection against corrosion while maintaining a clean, non-toxic surface that meets food-grade requirements.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
- Single Cold Reduced Process: Ensures consistent thickness and superior flatness for efficient can manufacturing.
- Food Grade Safety: Tin coating acts as a barrier, preventing direct contact between steel and food, preserving taste and quality.
- T2 Temper: Provides moderate hardness (HR30T 49-55) with excellent formability, ideal for draw/redraw and flanging operations.
- 0.18mm Thickness: Lightweight yet strong, optimizing material usage without compromising structural integrity.
- Balanced Tin Coating (1.1/1.1): Uniform coating on both sides ensures reliable corrosion resistance and weldability.
- Surface Options: Available in bright or matte finish, customizable to customer requirements.
- Width Flexibility: Standard widths from 600mm to 1050mm, with custom widths available upon request.
- Certified Quality: Manufactured under ISO9000 quality management system, with routine inspections for coating weight, thickness, and mechanical properties.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q1: What is the difference between Single Cold Reduced (SCR) and Double Cold Reduced (DCR) tinplate?
SCR tinplate is produced with one cold rolling pass, resulting in better ductility and formability, making it ideal for deep drawing of food cans. DCR offers higher strength but lower formability. Our SCR 0.18mm T2 is specifically designed for can bodies and ends. -
Q2: Is this tinplate suitable for direct contact with acidic foods like tomatoes or fruit?
Yes, the 1.1/1.1 tin coating provides excellent corrosion resistance against weak acids. However, for highly acidic or corrosive products, additional lacquering may be recommended. We can provide guidance based on your specific application. -
Q3: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
Our standard MOQ is 5 metric tons for standard sizes. For custom widths or special coatings, MOQ may be higher. Please contact us for detailed negotiation. -
Q4: Can you provide samples for testing before bulk order?
Absolutely. We offer free samples (A4 size or small coil) with the customer covering the shipping cost. Sample lead time is 3-5 working days. -
Q5: What certifications do you have for food safety?
We are certified under ISO9000 quality management system and also follow ISO19011:2000 audit guidelines. Our tinplate complies with FDA and EU food contact regulations. Specific certificates can be provided upon request. -
Q6: How do you ensure the tin coating thickness is consistent?
We use online X-ray fluorescence coating weight gauges during production, plus offline chemical titration tests for each coil. Consistency is ±0.1 g/m² per side. -
Q7: What are the typical lead times for a standard order?
For standard sizes (0.18mm, 1.1/1.1, T2), lead time is 15-20 working days after receiving deposit. For special customization, please allow 25-30 days. -
Q8: Can you provide technical support for the can-making process?
Yes, our engineering team can offer advice on press settings, lubrication, and die design to optimize your production. We also provide product data sheets and processing guidelines.
