A coating composition comprising a binder, the binder comprising a polyester material, wherein the polyester material comprises the reaction product of; (a) a polyacid, (b) a polyol and (c) a phosphorous acid, wherein the polyester material has a weight-average molecular weight (Mn) from about 1,000 Da to 25,000 Da and the polydispersity index (Mw/Mn) of the polyester material is from about 1 to 10 and characterised in that the polyester material is present in said binder composition in amounts of more than about 10 weight percent (wt%). The coating composition is useful for coating food and/or beverage containers.
