Improving can performance

Protact^® for aerosol components
Demand for improved internal and external aerosol protection and longer shelf life has led to the development of higher performance coatings.
With the Protact® polymer components (tops, bottoms, valve cups) the aerosol completely protected against external corrosion. Steel cans dent less easily retain their superior appearance, even when used intensively or stored in humid conditions.

Seamless aerosols
Traditionally, steel aerosols are welded. However, certain market sectors prefer cans without a weld. Corus high quality steel grades and can-making knowledge make this possible.
The Protact^® two-piece aerosol, made by DS Containers in a combined DRD and DWI can-making process, combines value and product integrity in a can that gives brands an opportunity to use a premium package with great consumer appeal. The weld free pack with its polymer corrosion protection, offers many possibilities for high quality decoration. Protact^® facilitates a lean production process for aerosol can makers, offering two lead times from coil to can.
Two-piece tinplate aerosols made by a DWI process are already on the market.

Shaped aerosols
Corus has special high elongation steels that enable the production of shaped aerosols. These are traditional aerosols that have been expanded. Shaped aerosols differentiate themselves clearly from all the other aerosols on the shelves.
