Andernach based Germany’s leading tin plate producer Thyssenkrupp Rasselstein has informed of the revised European standard 10202:2022. It sets the European standards for Cold reduced tinmill products, electrolytic tinplate & electrolytic chromium or chromium oxide coated steel and replaces the previous version from 2001. Thyssenkrupp Rasselstein spokeswoman Ms Carmen Tschage said “The revision reflects the current state of the art in the production of packaging steel. We therefore welcome the made changes and believe our customers will benefit from the new standards.”The REACH-compliant Chromium VI free products Chromium free passivation for tin-plate, CFPA & special chromium coated packaging steel ECCS RC, TCCT, have been included in the European standard. Furthermore, additional steel grades have been integrated into the standard. They reflect the trend towards ever harder grades.Unlike the previous version, the new standard now describes exactly how a tensile test must be performed. This will improve the comparability of steel grades from different manufacturers. But this can also mean that individual temper designations will change.
