Applications
A strong and proven material

Major application areas for this material are
- cans for food and pet food
- packaging for chemical or technical products
- aerosol cans
- closures
Large variety of application possibilities in different industries
Steel from thyssenkrupp is more than a material for packaging. It is also used by many other industries – particularly the automotive and electronics sectors, the construction industry and for many products intended for household use.
As electrification and connectivity continue to grow, electromagnetic shielding (EMC) is also becoming increasingly important. Ultra-thin sheet metal offers a wide range of applications in this area, such as in battery enclosures, power electronics, cable shielding, and industrial electronic systems.
Steel has proved to be a sturdy and reliable material for non-packaging applications as well. It combines its different material properties and thicknesses with a variety of possibilities for surface coating.
Steel is ideal for applications in lightweight construction or in multi-layer composites. Ultrathin steel foil is available in thicknesses as low as 0.06 mm.
