Bulk 99x120mm Large Food Tins | Empty 800g Cylindrical Canisters for Institutional Packing

Large-Diameter Cylindrical Metal Cans for Bulk Food Packaging

Heavy-duty 800g–850g (28–30 oz) containers designed for institutional-grade food preservation

Our facility manufactures thick-walled, wide-mouth cylindrical metal cans with a standard diameter of 99mm and a height of 120mm. Engineered for high-volume filling, these cans are ideal for institutional catering packs, bulk vegetables, concentrated soups, and commercial pet food formulations.

Technical Engineering Specifications

Base Diameter: 99mm

Rated Capacity: 800g – 850g (approx. 28–30 fl oz)

Base Material: Premium tin-plated low-carbon cold-rolled steel

Structural Seam: Ultra-smooth high-frequency induction welding with powder side-stripe coating

Closure Options: Wide-opening easy-open end (EOE) or traditional flat end

Internal Coating: Sulphur-resistant phenolic/epoxy-amine resin (BPA-NI / BPA-Non-Intent compliant)

Pressure Stability: Tested for superior internal vacuum retention during thermal cooling cycles

Application Advantages

Enhanced Sulphur-Resistant Internal Coating: Bulk food products—particularly high-meat pet foods or high-protein legume soups—often release active sulphides during thermal processing. To prevent dark staining on the interior walls, we passivate the can body with a specialized sulphur-resistant amine-phenolic coating. This active barrier ensures the can maintains its aesthetic tin-plated finish and chemical inertness during long-term storage.

Structural Rigidity for High-Volume Capacity: With a 99mm diameter, the sidewalls are subjected to significant physical stress during vacuum sealing. We employ advanced manufacturing processes—incorporating precise concentric micro-ribs and a reinforced base profile—to significantly enhance resistance to implosion and deformation under extreme high-vacuum conditions.

Seamless Automated Depalletising and Feeding: Designed to micron-level tolerances, the can's flange and double-seamed base ensure exceptional mechanical alignment precision. This perfect geometric structure ensures smooth, jam-free feeding across high-speed automatic depalletisers, rotary washing stations, and industrial double-seaming machines, thereby significantly boosting overall plant productivity.

Procurement Process

• Pre-print Graphic Design: Please provide vector artwork (AI or PDF format) for your marketing design; our graphics department will map the design onto a precision flat proof for preview.

• On-line Mechanical Compatibility Check: We will send unprinted sample cans directly to your facility to ensure a perfect fit with your existing seaming chuck dimensions.

• Mass Production & Automated Inspection: We utilise integrated multi-stage assembly lines for mass production, equipped with electronic optical inspection systems to detect and reject cans with microscopic pinhole defects.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Is this 99mm wide-mouth can suitable for processing high-density meat-based products?

A1: Absolutely. The 99mm wide-mouth design makes it ideal for filling high-density materials, such as luncheon meat blocks or pet food containing large meat chunks. When paired with our optional easy-release internal coating, even high-density foods slide out smoothly after slicing without sticking to the can walls.

Q2: What quality documentation do you provide for customs clearance and food safety compliance?

A2: Every batch of wide-mouth steel cans ships with a Material Test Certificate (MTC), an FDA compliance statement, and a BRCGS Global Standard for Packaging audit report, ensuring smooth customs clearance and regulatory compliance worldwide.

Q3: What shipping packaging solutions are typically used for these large empty cans?

A3: Given their large size, we load them onto extra-large, rigid shipping pallets and protect them with multi-layer shock-absorbing dividers. The entire shipment is securely strapped with composite nylon banding and wrapped in thick, UV-resistant stretch film to protect the empty cans from salt spray and moisture during ocean transit.

Q4: Do you provide trial production batches before a formal, large-scale industrial order is placed?

A4: Yes. We fully understand that updating filling line moulds requires precise validation. We can arrange specialised small-batch trial runs to provide your engineering team with an ample supply of actual empty cans, enabling the validation of fill weights and performance under high-temperature, high-pressure retort sterilisation.
