Packaging and why it is an Essential Need for Businesses

For any business or industry that deals with products which have liquid or are liquefied in nature, the packaging is perhaps the most important step in the production line. It is what will ensure that the product will reach the customer safely and without any leakage, spill or spoil. If you have a business which involves products of such nature, you surely know the importance of packaging.

What kinds of packages are there?

The answer is there quite a lot of types around. The most common ones are made of multiple layers of plastic and are called tetra packs. But for a majority of products, these packages are not the ideal containment method. The best way to hold liquid and products of that kind are in Tin cans. The cans and packages can be moulded into various sizes. Various forms of cylindrical shapes and sizes can be achieved with tin; thus, its versatility in packaging forms is unmatched. This also means they can hold a variety of sizes and still maintain their strength. You can easily get sizes ranging from 125ml to 5 litres! 

Another big advantage is that unlike other metals, tin resists any sort of chemical reaction. Its chemical passivity is what makes the product so good when it comes to packaging for food items. Since it is metallic, there is also the added advantage of the package being resistant to impacts, drops and movement over long distances. This is why the majority of food companies rely on tin rather than any other form of packaging when it comes to shipping their products. 

Cans also have other advantages which often get overlooked, some of these are:

• These cans are often checked for compliance, but they are almost always made under the laws of safe containment and transportation of dangerous goods in Australia. 

• They also adhere to the rules set by the UN regarding dangerous goods approved to packaging groups II and III, can manufacturers Australia take care of such guidelines with great detail. 

• Tin cans can also be printed on directly, while they are in the form of a sheet. With the help of UV lithographic metal printing, they can be imprinted with up to six colours. 

• They can also be fitted with various kinds of lids such as triple or double tite lever lids. The functionality of lids allow for easy refilling and reusing of the cans once the products have been used up and disposed of. 

• Cans are fully customizable, whatever shape, size or colour you want for a can, it can all be done. For businesses with a brand image, this is a great idea as they can then simply ship the product in a form factor which would be easy for their customers to associate with. 

If you own and operate a business or a company which deals in products of watery nature, switching to tin cans might just be the best idea. It is a great product to store in and can be easily moved around, as well as shipped to different places.
