     • Silný Odolnost proti korozi via controlled tin coating
     • Cost-effective for high-volume ambient foods
   • Nerez
     • Maximum structural strength (316L grade extends high-acid food shelf life past 36 měsíce)
     • Superior rust immunity
     • Essential for highly acidic or saline environments
   • Kompozitní
     • Multi-layer structure targeting low OTR (Oxygen Transmission Rate)
     • Enhanced barrier control
     • Lehký, rigid alternative
2. Srovnání výkonu

Typ materiálu	Odolnost proti korozi (hod solný sprej)	Mez kluzu (MPa)	Typická tloušťka (mm)	Index nákladů
Pocínovaný plech	96–240	280–550 (DR)	0.18–0,30	1.0
Nerez	500+	520–750	0.20–0,40	2.5
