Electrolytic Tinplate Coil Scrap from Japan
Electrolytic Tinplate Coil Scrap consists of edge trim and reject coils from the production of electrolytic tinplate (ETP), where a thin layer of tin is applied to a steel substrate. This manufacturing waste is classified under tariff item 7204.30.00 as waste and scrap of tinned iron or steel, suitable for remelting in steel mills. The tin coating distinguishes it from other ferrous scrap, making it a specific input for detinning or direct steel production.
