PACKAGING
•Steel packaging protects goods from water, air, and light exposure, and is fully
recyclable. This method of storage has been around for over 200 years.
•Steel allows for high-speed filling and lightweight, easy to open packaging.
Packaging steels are often made from low carbon cold-rolled steel strip and are
surface finished. The steel is tin plated to prevent corrosion and then coated
with a polymer, lacquered, and printed. The majority of steel packaging goes
towards food and beverage container, followed by a general line, aerosols, and
closures (e.g., bottle caps).
APPLICANCES AND INDUSTRY
About 75% of the weight of typical house hold appliances comes from steel.
Steel is found in appliances like fridge , washing machines, ovens, microwaves,
sinks, cutlery, Etc.
