Milk cans are key supporters in the business of dairy farmers. After they have collected a sufficient amount of milk from cattle, they need robust quality Milk cans for distribution to consumers directly or delivery to milk plants, milk societies, factories and other business centers. Are you one such dairy farmer who runs this business or is currently conducting basic research before starting the operations? Consider these top 5 features while you buy a milk can or a number milk cans:
Main Features To Consider
1. Material of Milk Can
The material of the milk can does affect how long the milk’s quality can be preserved without degrading. Because milk has vital nutrients, both macro and micro nutrients like protein, carbs, amino acids, essential fats, etc., its quality must be kept intact. To ensure this, aluminium or stainless steel milk can should be preferred. Aluminium Milk Cans are coated with a protective layer, and therefore, it is nonreactive with the milk. It prevents milk from external factors like light, oxygen and moisture. It provides ample resistance to corrosion and hence is mighty useful as milk containers during transportation and storage. 100% ISO-9001 certified Hindalco Aluminium Alloy Sheets are best suitable as food-grade material.
2. Capacity To Store Milk
After the milk can material has been finalized, consider how much milk needs to be stored in a single can. You can buy a single can of 50 litres or multiple cans of a smaller capacity. It depends upon how and where you are going to distribute the milk. Top manufacturers like Bimal Industries provide these cans in variable capacities, from 5 litres to 50 litres. They ensure the milk can is built with ample impact resistance to road bumps for safely transporting milk without denting.
3. Strong and Ergonomic Handle
The handle of the milk can must be lightweight but strong enough to carry the weight of the can without breaking. It must be designed ergonomically for seamless handling. As the milk can travel through various terrains, it must not break and splash the whole can of milk all over the road.
4. Sufficient Mouth Diameter
The mouth opening must be in the right diameter for easy filling and retrieval of milk from the can. It also ensures deep cleaning of the inside surfaces of the can, removing all the unwanted particles and microorganisms.
5. Leak-Proof Locking
Milk is sensitive to bacteria and heat. Therefore, it must be protected from these factors. The lid of the milk can should be airtight to prevent contamination and leaking of aerosols inside the can and disrupting the form of milk. Besides, it must be designed in a way that it can be opened with minimal effort because jerking caused by hard force can spill the milk.
Bonus Tip: Choose the Right Manufacturer
While all the above factors are distinct from each other, demanding long time in research and careful consideration, a lot of this time can be saved by choosing a reliable manufacturer. A certified and experienced company like Bimal Industries ensure all these features are provided within the Milk cans, conducts multiple cycles of quality tests as deemed fit and guides the buyers to make well-informed decisions in a quick time.
