Aluminium Can: The Path to 100% Circular Packaging
Improved Recyclability Through Smart Design
Did you know that aluminium cans are the most sustainable beverage packaging? Not only do they boast the highest recycling rate among all packaging types, but the beverage can industry is continuously working to become even more sustainable. As the world’s largest recycler of aluminium, Novelis is committed to increasing the recycled content in beverage cans and improving their recyclability through innovative design.
Working Together for 100% Recyclability
While the body of the can is already nearly fully recyclable, there’s still potential to improve the recyclability of can closures. To address this, Novelis collaborates with leading aluminium producers to develop new alloys for can closures that are easier to recycle. This innovation paves the way for beverage cans made entirely from recycled aluminium—a significant milestone for the circular economy.
Setting New Market Standards
This initiative not only accelerates the development of a new market standard but also reduces the carbon footprint of the entire industry. It supports the vision of making beverage cans a fully circular product and contributes to the goal of recycling 100% of all beverage cans in Europe by 2030.
