🙋 4. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Is the internal coating of this 200x308 can suitable for highly acidic tomato sauce?

A: Yes, it is perfectly suitable. Our 200x308 fish cans feature advanced acid-resistant internal coating technology (including BPA-NI/BPA-free options). This protective coating is specifically engineered to withstand the acidity and salinity of tomato sauce and brine, preventing metal corrosion or chemical migration into the food.

Q2: Does this 200x308 metal can come with an easy-open end (EOE)?

A: Yes, each batch comes with standard food-grade easy-open ends. These lids are designed to be seamed onto the can body after filling, creating a perfect, leak-proof seal that ensures food freshness.

Q3: What is the Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) for customised offset printing on these seafood cans?

A: We accept small-batch orders for plain silver or standard gold-coated cans. However, full-colour offset printing featuring your unique brand graphics and designs requires a higher factory MOQ to offset the set-up costs of high-speed printing presses.

Q4: Can these sardine cans withstand industrial high-temperature sterilisation (retorting)?

A: Yes. Both the tinplate body and the easy-open end are designed to withstand high-temperature commercial retorting and steam sterilisation processes. They maintain their structural integrity and vacuum seal during rapid heating and cooling cycles.

Q5: How do you protect these round metal cans from damage during international shipping?

A: We employ industrial-grade export packaging standards to prevent container dents. The containers are precisely stacked on heavy-duty wooden pallets, protected by a thick corrugated cardboard top sheet, and secured with multiple layers of high-strength stretch wrap to ensure the goods arrive at your factory in perfect condition.
