Country Outlook
Brazil has the biggest market for metal cans in Latin America. This is because it has a large population, a growing food and drink industry, and strong efforts to be more environmentally friendly. Aluminum is the most common material for beverage packaging, while steel and tinplate are the most common materials for food cans. This is thanks to new features like easy-open lids, decorative printing, and lightweight designs. In 2021, the country's National Solid Waste Policy and efforts by the industry led to an amazing 98.7% recycling rate for aluminum cans. Urbanization, higher disposable incomes, and the need for convenient, long-lasting packaging are driving growth. However, inflation, currency fluctuations, and competition from other materials are making things harder. Key players like Ball, Crown, Amcor, Silgan, and Kian Joo, a local company, stay competitive by being big, coming up with new ideas, and being environmentally friendly.
