SISTIAGA® Aluminium Container Coatings
SISTIAGA® coatings provide application robustness even with older equipment
GCP Applied Technologies reinforces its ongoing commitment to the rigid packaging marketplace with the addition of the complete SISTIAGA® can coatings portfolio of coatings for aluminium containers and collapsible tubes.
Robustness and Consistency
SISTIAGA® can coatings offer extreme robustness and application versatility. Whether applied in aluminium aerosol cans, bottle-cans or collapsible tubes, SISTIAGA® can coatings ensure the best balance between chemical and mechanical resistance, as well as smooth and consistent application performance.
SISTIAGA® can coatings provide application consistency. Their formulation robustness can be put to the test in both state-of-the-art machines and older equipment, without sacrificing performance. This independence from equipment variables is one of SISTIAGA® can coatings' greatest assets.
SISTIAGA® preserves container integrity
Internal coatings for aerosols and bottle-cans
Our solvent-based internal coatings function to preserve the integrity of aluminium containers by protecting the aluminium from corrosive impact. Internal coatings improve the shelf life of containers and remain neutral, from an organoleptic perspective.
Irrespective of resin technology, our internal coatings for aerosols and bottle-cans feature excellent sprayability and good film porosity. SISTIAGA® internal coatings cover a full spectrum of applications, ranging from beer, carbonated soft drinks, energy drinks and water, to high pH health and beauty products.
Responding to the packaging needs of household and cosmetic products containing chemically aggressive solvents, our polyamide imide-based product line offers maximum resistance to chemical agents. They're suitable for use with DME propellants.
High-impact graphics
Basecoats for aerosols and bottle-cans
SISTIAGA® can coating products allow customers to take full advantage of aluminium containers for high-impact graphics and colours. Our highly decorative and versatile basecoats provide a fundamental foundation to support inks and varnishes.
Whether white or clear, SISTIAGA® solvent-based basecoats show extreme latitude as primers for inks from different suppliers. All formulations have been carefully designed to achieve perfect balance between elasticity, mechanical strength and process resistance.
