Which code does this activity belong in?
Metal can manufacturing covers establishments that produce cans and their component parts, such as lids and ends. The distinction from other metal container manufacturing lies in the product form: metal can manufacturers specifically make cylindrical or similarly shaped vessels designed for food, beverage, or aerosol products, whereas producers of light gauge metal bins, drums, garbage cans, lunch boxes, mailboxes, tool boxes, and similar containers are classified in other metal container manufacturing.
