Ball Corporation, a leading aluminium packaging provider, has teamed up with Açaí Motion, a Brazilian natural energy drink brand, to launch a new line of sustainable aluminium cans certified by the Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI).
These ASI-certified cans reflect a commitment to high environmental, social, and governance standards across the entire production chain from mining to final manufacturing. The certification supports transparency and responsible sourcing, empowering consumers to choose products that align with sustainable values.
According to Ball, the cans are equipped with its exclusive internal coating technology, designed to preserve the beverage’s flavour and nutritional value while enhancing shelf life. This innovation meets consumer expectations and gives Açaí Motion a distinct competitive advantage in the market. This collaboration promotes a circular economy within the beverage packaging industry.
Ball South America sustainability director Tamires Silvestre said, “At Ball, we are committed to delivering innovative solutions that combine sustainability and performance. Our collaboration with Açaí Motion is a perfect example of how we can support visionary brands in expanding their businesses globally with responsible, high-performance packaging.”
Ball’s strategic collaboration with Açaí Motion, which operates in over 60 countries, supports the brand’s goal of meeting growing global demand and strengthening its market position. Known for its natural energy drink made from sustainably sourced açaí and guarana, Açaí Motion offers a healthier alternative free from taurine and comparatively low in sugar.
Açaí Motion founder and chair Rafael Aun Ming said, “The partnership with Ball allows us to take our product to new levels of quality and sustainability. Having our beverages packaged in ASI-certified cans is a crucial competitive advantage in the global market.”
