Beverage Can

European can makers produce in excess of 63 billion cans per year. While almost all food cans are made of steel, aluminium’s unique properties make it ideal for holding carbonated beverages. The typical aluminium can weighs less than 15 grams, yet its thin walls withstand more than 90 psi exerted by the carbon dioxide in beer and soft drinks.

 

Aluminium’s shiny finish also makes it an attractive background for decorative printing, important for a product that must grab the attention of consumers in a competitive market.
