Why Metal Cans?
Metal food cans are 100% recyclable without loss of strength or quality. They have the highest recycling rate of any food package in addition to being efficient resource-savers since there is no need for refrigeration or freezing. Cans also help to minimize food waste compared to fresh foods, while still delivering nutrition and quality.
Why Metal Food Packaging?
Eating healthy means getting the most nutritional benefit from your meals…and despite some popular misconceptions, canned foods can often deliver greater nutritional value than ‘fresh.’
