🙋 FAQ

Q1: What are the standard physical dimensions and capacity of a #10 food can?

A: In commercial packaging, the #10 can (size code 603x700) has a physical base diameter of 6-3/16 inches and a total height of 7 inches. Its internal volume is approximately 100 fluid ounces, equivalent to about 3 litres of storage space.

Q2: Is specialised sealing equipment required to seal the standard solid flat lid onto the 603x700 can body?

A: Yes. The included standard solid lids (available in gold, silver, and tan) are commercial-grade components designed for permanent sealing. To achieve the 100% airtight, leak-proof double-seam seal necessary for long-term food preservation, a manual or automatic mechanical can sealer must be used.

Q3: What advantages do these tinplate containers offer compared to plastic buckets used for dry goods storage?

A: Heavy-duty plastic buckets are porous at a microscopic level, allowing for gas exchange over time; in contrast, our tinplate cans provide an absolute barrier against gas and light. This high-quality metal construction protects food from photodegradation, environmental moisture, and pests, thereby significantly extending shelf life and maintaining product stability.

Q4: Is the internal coating safe for direct food contact?

A: Completely safe. All our #10 food cans are made from food-grade materials and manufactured under strict international hygiene control standards. The interior metal surface features an advanced protective coating that isolates the food from the steel body, preventing corrosion or oxidation.

Q5: How can colour schemes be customised for bulk orders?

A: We offer a variety of aesthetic options to align with your brand identity guidelines. Stock is available for bodies in gold, silver, and grey, while lids come in gold, tan, and silver. Standard combinations are ready for immediate shipment, subject to availability; for large-scale wholesale production, we can also arrange fully customised exterior lithographic printing.
