for liquid soup products, most of them use metal or plastic cans (made by polyacrylonitrile or nylon coextrusion process), and generally use metal easy to open cans. The plastic can is covered with a foamed plastic insulation layer, and the outer layer of the metal cover is also covered with a plastic elastic clamping cover. For the convenience of heating in the microwave oven, a vent hole is left on the outer plastic cover -- the measurement system of material deformation. When eating, this kind of canned soup can be drunk directly without pouring into other containers

the solid soup is mostly packed with paper cups with good strength. The outer wall of the paper cup is treated with moisture-proof treatment, or it is directly made of polystyrene plastic cups, and most of them use paper-based composite films to open the cover. Convenient Tang Jing can also be packaged in composite bags. Compared with cup products with the same capacity, bagged products can save up to 84% of packaging materials and prolong the shelf life
