BofA says aluminium cans are winning over beverage brands and consumers
Whether it's a soft drink, an energy drink or an imported beer, aluminium cans are increasingly becoming the packaging of choice. New market data analysed by Bank of America (BofA) shows the material continues to gain market share, while glass packaging loses ground across several beverage categories, reflecting changing consumer preferences and packaging trends. According to BofA's analysis of Nielsen scanner data for the week ended July 25, 2026, non-alcoholic beverage volumes rose 0.7 per cent during the latest four-week period, with aluminium cans outperforming other packaging formats. Aluminium can volumes increased 2.6 per cent year-on-year over the latest four weeks, while maintaining positive growth of 1.3 per cent over 13 weeks and 2.2 per cent over the past year. In comparison,...
Glass, plastic or aluminium? 74.8% recycling rate gives beverage cans a circularity advantage
A cold beer in a glass bottle, sparkling water in a PET bottle and an energy drink in a sleek aluminium can may occupy the same refrigerator shelf. From a sustainability standpoint, however, they are playing three very different games. The global beverage packaging industry expands while simultaneously being pushed towards lower carbon emissions, higher recycled content and better packaging circularity. Estimates compiled for this analysis place the broader global beverage packaging market at USD 157.7 billion in 2023, with the market projected to reach USD 222.1 billion by 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5 per cent. Alternative methodologies put the market at USD 184 billion in 2025 and USD 283.7 billion by 2034. Whichever methodology is used, one thing is clear that...

CVS begins replacing plastic pill bottles with aluminium packaging
CVS is rolling out aluminium bottles for some of its store-brand medicines, replacing the plastic containers that have long been used for over-the-counter pills. The change will initially apply to larger packs of allergy and pain-relief medicines sold under the CVS brand. The products contain the same active ingredients as well-known medications such as Allegra, Benadryl, Claritin, Zyrtec, Tylenol and Advil. According to the company, the move is intended to modernise packaging while offering a material that is more widely recycled than traditional plastic bottles. CVS said the aluminium containers provide similar protection for medicines and help maintain product shelf life. The company also noted that prices for the products will remain unchanged despite the switch in packaging. Explore:...
