Hu Yanbin calls on manufacturers to open the can buckles, thinking it is safer and more hygienic during the epidemic – People – cnBeta.COM

How do you think the can buckle should be opened? Some celebrities strongly suggest opening it. On March 30, Hu Yanbin updated his Weibo post saying that when he was drinking cans during the epidemic, he was always worried that the clasp he pulled into the can was not hygienic enough. He also searched for information himself, and learned that the opening of the pull tab of the can is actually for environmental protection, which will make material recycling more convenient, and can also prevent the sharp pull tab from scratching people.

But during the epidemic, it is more appropriate to consider hygiene and safety first, so he appealed to manufacturers to develop a design that the buckle can be opened out, but at the same time, the buckle can be put into the jar after drinking. He also posted a picture of himself drinking cans and a small picture of popular science that he found.

In this regard, many netizens also expressed the same feeling: “Very good suggestion, agree!” “Me too! Always wipe it before every drink, I hope it can be improved.”

In 1940, Europe and the United States began to sell beer in stainless steel cans, and the appearance of aluminum cans during the same period also became a leap in canning technology. In 1963, the pop-top can was invented in the United States. It inherited the design features of the previous can-shaped design and designed a pop-up ring on the top. This is a revolution in the way of opening, which brings great convenience and enjoyment to people, so it is soon widely used.

By 1980, the European and American markets basically adopted this aluminum can as the packaging form of beer and carbonated beverages. With the advancement of design and production technology, aluminum cans tend to be lighter, from the initial 60 grams to about 21 to 15 grams in 1970.
