Fuel Additive Can

Q: What material is the fuel additive can made from, and why is it suitable?
A: Our fuel additive cans are made from high-quality tinplate (electrolytic tin-coated steel). This material is ideal because it provides:

• Superior Chemical Resistance: Protects against corrosive additives (e.g., detergents, cetane boosters, corrosion inhibitors).

• Excellent Barrier Properties: Blocks oxygen, moisture, and UV light to preserve additive effectiveness and shelf life.

• Structural Strength: Withstands pressure changes, impacts during shipping, and stacking.

• Material Compatibility: Safe for gasoline, diesel additives, ethanol treatments, and injector cleaners.

Q: How do you ensure the can won’t leak or react with aggressive fuel additives?
A: Safety and integrity are critical:

• Advanced Sealing: Triple-seam construction with epoxy sealing compound + threaded cap featuring a chemical-resistant gasket (e.g., EPDM or FFKM).

• Interior Lacquer: Food-grade or specialty polymer coating applied inside to prevent interaction between tinplate and aggressive chemicals.

• Compatibility Testing: Cans are tested with industry-standard additives (e.g., ISO 2719) for leak-proof performance and material stability.

Q: Are your fuel additive cans certified for hazardous material transport?
A: Yes. Our tinplate cans meet:

• UN Certification: Compliant with UN 1A2/X/Y standards for shipping hazardous liquids (tested for stacking, pressure, drop resistance).

• ADR/RID/IMDG: Suitable for road, rail, and sea transport of flammable/additive chemicals (capacity-dependent).

• Custom Labeling: Pre-printed hazard symbols (e.g., flammability, corrosion) available upon request.

Q: Can I customize the can for my brand and regulatory needs?
A: Absolutely. We offer full OEM/ODM support:

• Printing: High-resolution offset/litho printing directly on tinplate for logos, instructions, warnings, and multilingual text.

• Labels: Optional pressure-sensitive labels for small batches.

• Cap Options: Child-resistant (CR) caps, tamper-evident seals, pour spouts, or customized colors.

• Compliance Markings: Include EPA, REACH, GHS pictograms, batch codes, or barcodes.

• MOQs apply – contact us for scalable solutions.

Q: How sustainable are your fuel additive cans?
A: Tinplate is a top eco-choice:

• Infinitely Recyclable: 100% recyclable without quality loss (global recycling rate >90%).

• Recycled Content: Options available with >30% recycled tinplate.

• Reduced Carbon Footprint: Lighter than glass, stack efficiently, and optimize shipping space.
