Brighter branding with steel

With the actual trend being towards metallic designs, the leading steel for packaging producers and can-manufacturers in Europe have jointly undertaken to considerably improve the brightness of steel beverage cans.

  • This optimisation process improves the homogeneity, the whiteness and the gloss of the can, achieving a mirror like finish
  • Leading can manufacturing locations in Europe are now able to offer the appropriate support for original transparent label designs of premium quality

This new advance gives a competitive edge in display capabilities. Through the use of transparent inks, stunning effects can be developed. Truly a great opportunity to enhance a brand’s visual presentation!
