Custom Metal Food Cans
three piece food can
Our three-piece metal cans consist of a cylindrical steel body welded or soldered along the side seam, then sealed with top and bottom ends via double seaming. This design offers exceptional strength—resisting internal pressure and rough transit—while allowing for maximum size and shape flexibility. Shining can customize three-piece food cans to suit any market, from tall and slim to wide and short formats. Perfect for vegetables, beans, and sauces, these food metal cans combine versatility with proven durability in demanding supply chains.
two piece food can
Shining’s two-piece food metal cans (also known as drawn cans) feature a seamless one-piece body formed using advanced DRD (Drawn & Redrawn) or DWI (Drawn & Ironed) techniques. With no side seam, these cans ensure airtight integrity and eliminate leak paths. The smooth interior supports even application of food-safe coatings, enhancing hygiene. The uninterrupted exterior enables full-body, high-definition printing for a sleek, premium look. Lightweight yet strong, two-piece cans are ideal for wet or acidic contents such as soups, seafood, and evaporated milk, where absolute seal integrity is essential.
