Cold rolled sheet is produced by processing hot rolled strip through a cold rolling process followed by annealing and/or temper rolling. This process will produce steel with thinner gauges, closer dimensional tolerances and a wider range of uncoated surface finishes. Read more

Tinplate is produced from cold rolled sheet which is electrolytically coated with tin. The tin coating provides corrosion resistance to the steel substrate and benefits the preservation of certain foods. In addition, the surface of tinplate lends itself to printing and silk screening. It is used widely in the packaging industry for cans, can ends, larger containers and a range of closures. Tin coatings of different thicknesses are produced to suit specific requirements. Read more
