Aluminium cans are perfect containers - strong, lightweight, compact, impermeable, safe and recyclable.

Most drinks cans are now made of aluminium and their popularity is easy to understand as aluminium imparts no taste, it keeps flavour and carbonation in and oxygen, light and moisture out. Also it is shatter proof and any attempts at possible tampering are easily detectable.

Aluminium beverage cans have a protective polymer coating applied on the inside to prolong storage life. This polymer coating ensures that the acids and salts in beverages or food never actually come into contact with the metal.

Aluminium cans are easier to ship to wholesalers and retailers than both glass or plastic bottles because of they are light, but strong. They stack better in delivery trucks, on shelves and in the refrigerator and need less protection during shipment. Significant energy savings are made in both shipping and distribution.

Aluminium cans are also easy to collect for recycling and one of their great assets is that they are totally recyclable.
