Cans and drums

An Award-Winning Sustainable Alternative to Carbon Steel and Plastic

Developed specifically for the packaging sector, our stainless steel drums and cans, which received the ISSF’s Bronze Award for Best Development, are an excellent, long lasting, alternative to traditional carbon steel and plastic cans and drums.

Innovative
Our cans and drums are made from our innovative 430DDQ grade, which offers unique mechanical properties for the deep drawing required by the manufacturing process. 430DDQ is also known for its high gloss – the highest of Aperam’s portfolio of ferritic stainless steels.

Sustainable
Unlike their carbon steel and plastic counterparts, stainless steel drums can be reused and endlessly recycled, resulting in less disposed of products, a minimal environmental impact, and contributing to the circular economy.

Our stainless steel cans and drums are up to 23% lighter than those made of carbon steel or plastic. Besides differentiating itself aesthetically, our stainless steel cans and drums offer numerous technical advantages. For starters, they outlast those made from carbon steel and plastic. Furthermore, they’re more durable and, due to their excellent corrosion resistance, have a longer service life. Stainless steel is also a cleaner and safer material for transporting and storing goods.

Add it all up and what you get is a competitive – and innovative – alternative to carbon steel and plastic drum.
