It’s easy to earn bonus points with consumers when your brand’s packaging reflects environmental responsibility. CCL’s aerosol and bottle packaging is made from virtually pure virgin aluminum, which means it is 100% recyclable. Once placed into the recycling loop, CCL’s packaging can be used – and reused – for a broad range of durable and non-durable consumer goods. Recycling aluminum requires only 5% of the energy as compared with the production of native aluminum from bauxite ore. Recycling glass requires a significantly higher energy percentage rate (67%) when compared to the production of glass from sand, soda ash, and limestone. Plastic does not recycle as efficiently either, because the quality of plastic is degraded during processing.
As a lightweight and rugged material, aluminum packaging also matches up well with today’s active consumer lifestyles. With customizable contours to add a comfortable grip aluminum packaging represents the go-to option for an increasingly on-the-go population.
Plus, aluminum's thermodynamic properties retain coldness longer. This bodes well for beverage products that, with the help of aluminum bottle packaging, cool faster and retain their chill longer in comparison to other beverage packaging formats. And, the inherently strong barrier properties of aluminum maximize shelf life for both food and beverage consumables.
