Tinplate

In Germany, 91.4percent of tinplate from private consumption was recycled in 2020. Therecycling rate for total tinplate consumption has also been stable at around 90percent since 2006. These findings were published by the Gesellschaft fürVerpackungsmarktforschung (gvm) in its recently published annual recyclingreport for packaging.

For the first time ever, thyssenkrupp Rasselstein GmbH, Germany's only manufacturer of tinplate, is specifically addressing consumers to inform them about the recyclability and sustainability of tinplate.
