The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) announced the appointment of Lin Wan Tsang as Chairperson of ISO/TC 52 Light Gauge Metal Containers.

Lin serves as President of Euro Asia Packaging, holds the position of Rotating Chair of the Aerosol Committee of the China Packaging Federation (ACCPF) and was formerly President of the International Organization of Aluminum Aerosol Can Manufacturers (AEROBAL).

The scope of ISO/TC 52 covers standardization in the field of light gauge metal containers with a nominal material thickness of up to or equal to 0.49 mm. This industry occupies a significant share of the global metal packaging market, said ISO, with products distinguished by their wide range of shapes and sizes. Among them, the aerosol can serves as a typical example of light gauge metal container applications.

“[Based on my experience with] the platforms of AEROBAL and ACCPF, I will actively promote a global standardization strategy, and give particular priority to the development of ISO standards focused on carbon emissions and carbon footprint,” noted Lin.

“I am committed to ensuring that standardization brings tangible benefits to all countries and enterprises, including AEROBAL members,” he concluded.
