Tin Containers offer many advantages in this regard:
1. Energy saving in the manufacture of the material
2. Lower generation of pollution in the production and recycling processes
3. Natural Degradation and fast in the tin containers exposed to the elements that become harmless iron oxide
4. Easier for recycling by the magnetic nature of tinplate
