We Print directly onto aluminum beverage cans, eliminating the need for plastic sleeves and labels.
​
Using a unique electrostatic drop-on-demand technology, we are the only printer in Europe using thermally cured inks with an industry standard Over Print Varnish (OPV)
What do we do?
Environment
Our state-of-the-art production facility in Peterborough has the capacity to remove 44 million pieces of single use plastic from the beverage supply chain. These plastics are usually burnt off as part of the aluminium recycling process – emitting harmful microplastics and toxins into the atmosphere.
Cost
With rising material and transport costs associated with plastic sleeves and labels, direct-to-can digital print has the potential to yield real savings.
​
Unlike UV Inkjet, our prices are not driven by design complexity or number of colours – our prices are set with only fixed uplifts for OPV and base primer colour.
Quality
Prior to print, each can is automatically cleaned and primed. This helps give unrivalled adhesion and resistance to chipping when compared to UV inkjet.
​
Our ink formulations contain no binding agents or potentially dangerous monomers – just a layer of pigment safely secured with industry standard OPV.
