Steel Packaging Solutions: Strapping, Sheet Piling & Containers
Steel plays a critical role in industrial packaging, cargo securing, and containment worldwide. This guide covers the major steel packaging applications.
1. Steel Strapping
The most widely used material for heavy-duty cargo securing. Made from carbon steel, stainless, or high-tensile steel.
| Type | Thickness | Tensile | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Regular duty | 0.5-0.8mm | 700-900 MPa | Light bundling |
| High tensile | 0.6-1.2mm | 900-1200 MPa | Steel coils, heavy loads |
| Stainless | 0.3-0.8mm | 600-900 MPa | Corrosive environments |
2. Steel Sheet Piling
Interlocking sections driven into ground for earth retention and water exclusion. U-type, Z-type, straight web profiles. Width: 400-750mm, Length: 6-30m. Used for cofferdams, retaining walls, flood defense.
3. Steel Containers & Drums
From 20ft shipping containers (Corten A steel) to 200L steel drums and ISO tanks. Steel provides unmatched strength, durability, and security for global shipping.
Sustainability Advantage
Steel is the most recycled material on earth (85%+ recycling rate). 100% recyclable without property loss. Magnetic separation makes recycling cheap and efficient.
