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 ›

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 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 ›

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 ›

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 ›

Aluminium in packaging applications saves more resources than are needed in its production. 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 that went into farming, transporting and preparing the contents. /// LEARN MORE ›

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 the metal even recovered from incinerator bottom ash. /// LEARN MORE ›

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 ›
