Trends & Future Applications
Healthy and sustainable two-wheel drive
1. Current drivers
Healthy consumption upgrade: The global ready-to-eat food market will grow by 8% annually (2023-2030), and the advantages of aluminum cans in preservation will be highlighted;

Plastic ban expansion: The EU SUP directive promotes aluminum cans to replace plastics, and the penetration rate of aluminum cans in Europe is expected to reach 40% by 2030;

Mature recycling system: The Aluminum Association aims to increase recycling rates to 80% by 2030.

2. Future technology direction
Ultra-thin aluminum cans: 0.25mm aluminum coil stamping technology (developed by Bohr Company in the United States), material consumption is reduced by 15%;

Smart Packaging:

Integrate NFC tags (such as Pepsi Cola's pilot) to scan the code to trace food information;

Temperature-sensitive color-changing coating (Toray technology of Japan) to display the freshness of the product in real time.

Green Manufacturing:

The carbon footprint of the hydropower aluminum process (Hydro Norway) is ≤ 2kg CO₂/kg, which is suitable for the carbon neutrality goal.
