Packaging - The Aluminium Story

  • Decorative​

    Aluminium’s diverse range of finishes plus its compatibility with all printing technologies provides designers with enormous scope to create packaging with stunning graphic design, shelf presence and brand identity. | Learn more

  • Conductive

    Aluminium has a thermal conductivity at the top of the range for metallic alloys, making it ideal for applications that minimise heating and chilling times and energies, such as a cold drink can or a ready meal foil tray. | Learn more

  • Lightweight

    Lightweight aluminium packaging helps save resources during the transport and storage of the protected product and the packaging itself, both to the consumer and at the end of the packaging life. | Learn more

  • Formable

    The formability of aluminium allows for the manufacture of shape holding foil applications, eye catching aerosol tubes and branded drinks cans. The metal’s malleability also means that aluminium foil can be easily deformed without losing its barrier integrity. | Learn more

  • Protective

    Aluminium foil packaging is the lightest material to offer a complete barrier to light, gases and moisture and can help to extend the life of products. By enabling products to be preserved for long periods without the need for refrigeration, aluminium packaging helps to prevent spoilage and can provide large energy savings. | Learn more

  • Resource Saving

    Various Life Cycle Assessments (LCAs) show that aluminium packaging contributes less than 10% of the environmental impact in a product‘s lifecycle, yet prevent spoilage and therefore save the resources… | Learn more

  • Recyclable

    The aluminium drinks can is the most recycled beverage container in the world and most aluminium foil applications are fully recyclable as well. Aluminium foil applications that are not recycled can be incinerated for energy recovery and… | Learn more

  • Hygienic & Safe

    Aluminium foil is completely sterile thanks to the high temperature annealing production process. It is safe for use in contact with foodstuffs and pharmaceuticals and doesn’t harbour or promote the growth of bacteria. | Learn more

Aluminium in packaging

The aluminium beverage can is one of the most sustainable packaging solutions in the world.

Aluminium’s ability to form any shape and its protective qualities have made it the most versatile packaging material in the world. In addition, a key benefit is that aluminium foil, aluminium cans and other aluminium packaging materials can be fully recycled and reused an infinite number of times.
