The cylindrical
packaging format made from carton board to be filled aseptically with liquid, boasts
a shelf-life of up to 12 months unchilled, with the promise that this will not
compromise the drinks aroma, colour or taste.
A comparison of the Product Carbon Footprint of packaging for non carbonated
drinks made of Cartocan®, aluminium and PET demonstrates
significant benefits for Cartocan®. The Carbon Footprint provides information on the total CO2emissions generated
by a product.
- By contrast with PET, the prime advantage of Cartocan® is its weight, which is not even half as much as that of PET.
- The main benefit of Cartocan® as compared with aluminium is in the area of raw materials. The use of 50% renewable raw materials in Cartocan® generates significantly fewer greenhouse gas emissions than in the energy intensive production of primary aluminium (see graph below).
The
FSC carton board laminate construction offers a white, natural clean look in
addition to the standard aluminium can impersonation and, its cylindrical
surface combined with a peel-off lid, provides beverage companies with a wealth
of branding space at their disposal.
It will come as no surprise that the eco-friendly Cartocan® is the packaging of choice for
premium drink brands such as Naturaplan's bio Botanic
Energy drink. With its sustainable materials, carbon footprint control and
robustness, Cartocan® is certainly setting a precedent within the current packaging
trend for sustainability.
The Alexir Partnership teamed
up with Ennstal Milch last year to launch the Cartocan® into the UK
market at the Packaging Innovations Show in London. Following the success of the launch, the Alexir Partnership showcased its
new GALAXY Iced Coffee Cartocan® at the Packaging
Innovations Show in Birmingham last week.
