The Can Manufacturers Institute announces the launch of a new website that promotes the benefits of metal cans as the best packaging choice for food and beverages.

That first sip of cold beer from an aluminum can or a bottle tastes great, doesn’t it? But don’t you wish there was a convenient way to keep that can colder, longer? Commodore Plastics has the answer with its new Labec® foam label stock, and is targeting both large and small breweries.

Rexam, one of the leading global beverage can makers, has announced its support of the Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI) to develop a global standard for aluminum sustainability. Joining other large producers and consumers of aluminum, Rexam’s action is another example of its industry-leading commitment to sustainability.

This year has started with recognition for Ardagh Group and the team who produced the Jean Paul Gaultier Coca-Cola contour bottles. The eye catching limited edition containers, which had already been honoured in 2012 with trophies from Starpack, Best of Metal (MPMA) and The Cans of the Year Award 2012 (The Canmaker), made it a quartet of successes when it was recognized with a Worldstar Award from the World Packaging Organization.
