From the supplier: Weirton Steel's Weirtec Technical Center began researching microwaveable steel cans in 1988. The researchers have coated round, shallow containers with polyester, which allows the steel containers to be used in microwave ovens. A pull-top steel lid allows microwaves to enter the container. These containers are cost-competitive and recyclable. They also provide a non-refrigerated shelf life of two years, compared to 18 months for food products in barrier plastic containers.

I did the lab work on this project. We needed a microwave absorber for the outside of the can, but it was tied up in stealth technology for warplanes and they would not permit us to use it! Thus the can's contents just heated from the top down!
