Inner Can Coatings
- Inner cans are coated with tin, which is divided into several types for different uses.

- Has lower resistance to oxidation than inherited fats.
C. Epoxy Coating
- Has good temperature and resistance to soldering operations.
- Used for cans that require high temperature resistance, such as for vinyl products.
D. Vinyl Coating
- Has high corrosive properties and is used for high-fat foods.
- Used in combination with epoxy to enhance properties.
E. Polymeric Coating (PET)
- Used to make steel tins and has a demi-ride poly and amorphous crystalline state.
- Can be used in different types of bags, such as Shrou A, Shrou B, and Shrou C, each with its own properties and uses.
- Thickness of the coating can vary from 0.0025 to 0.0127 millimeter to 3 to 9 millimeter.
