Over 90% of naturally preserved ambient fish are packed in cans. A fact that reflects consumer preferences for healthy foods in a convenient format. Steel has an impressive range of advantages as a packaging material for fish:
Steel is cost-effective and durable
Steel meets the highest food safety and quality standards
Steel preserves fish in a safe and natural way
Steel cans enhance the nutritional values of fish products. Canned fish provides more calcium than fresh fish, and tuna canned in brine or spring water is low in fat, as the canning process removes fat
A wide variety of specially adapted can formats is available, including oval, round, rectangular and bowl shapes
In addition to easy-open ends, peelable ends are now available which enable brands to lead in consumer convenience and safety
With Protact®, Corus Packaging Plus is setting new standards in the food packaging industry. Protact® is also the material of choise for demanding peel-off rings.
