Beverage cans, a global phenomenon

Beverage cans are composed of a drawn and wall ironed steel body (DWI process) and a seamed metal end.

It’s easy to print, easy to fill at high throughputs, extremely rigid and tough, both on filling lines and at the point of sale, and fully recyclable. All this has made the steel beverage can a modern phenomenon on a global scale.

Demand for beverage cans has shown steady growth of 4% per year on average in Europe for the past 10 years.
