ETP vs. TFS: Which Substrate Wins in Food Can Manufacturing?
ETP and TFS suit different food can uses. ETP fits welded three-piece cans and acidic fruits for its weldability and sacrificial protection. TFS works better for drawn two-piece cans, ends and high-protein foods with strong lacquer adhesion & sulfur resistance. Costs vary by coating and tooling needs.
How to Avoid Color Shift in Metal Lithography: A Surface Finish Guide for Printed ETP
For printing-grade ETP, consistent surface finish is critical. Fluctuations in roughness, passivation and oil film cause color deviation, poor ink adhesion and production losses. Buyers should define strict specs for Ra value, passivation and oil coating, and avoid common procurement errors.
