In a whitepaper released today, Trivium Packaging, a $2.7B global leader in sustainable metal packaging, sheds new light on the modern advancements in the canning of food products. The report findings show that metal cans help to lock in food’s nutritional value while simultaneously reducing food waste. They are also circular by nature, being made from infinitely recyclable material.
The report, titled “Protect, Promote, Preserve,” defines the modern food can as the optimal food packaging choice, demonstrating its intrinsic advantages as it relates to delivering robust product protection, promotional opportunities for brand owners, and superior recyclability.
By canning products, companies can experience three core benefits that help drive business success within the packaging industry, while protecting the world around us:
“The advantages of strategic, sustainable packaging are wide-ranging, and the findings within the whitepaper reinforce our mission here at Trivium,” Jenny Wassenaar, VP of Sustainability at Trivium Packaging said. “Whether a business’ packaging goal is environmental in nature, bottom line-focused, or a combination of the two, metal canning is not only beneficial to business and the world around us – it is more frequently being demanded by the consumer.”
Trivium’s 2021 Buying Green report shows that up to 52% of consumers look for information on the recyclability of the packaging products they buy and that 73% are willing to pay a premium for products that come in more sustainable packaging.
