High performance packaging with up to 98% paper content from Sonoco

Are you looking for environmentally responsible packaging? Sonoco’s GreenCan solution is made from 92 to 98% paper content, including post consumer recycled paper. This makes it easy for consumers to recycle – and it is also an environmentally responsible choice for your brand.

GreenCan maintains exceptional strength and durability for product protection during transport, regardless of its high paper composition – and it also commands attention on shelves.

The GreenCan is made with over 60% recycled fibre and an integrated paper lid – a packaging solution designed with simplicity and sustainability in mind. With GreenCan, you can meet consumer expectations, support corporate sustainability goals and protect your products – all with one innovative solution.

Brands using GreenCan have hailed the eco friendly packaging as high quality and a great, sustainable option, with consumers also applauding the packaging. Here are just some of the brands Sonoco has partnered with to create more environmentally friendly packaging:

• Health and wellbeing start up, Vetain GmbH, made the switch to GreenCan with a paper end for its range of protein powdered products. Made with at least 96% paper content, the solution serves as a recyclable and circular packaging alternative, and is fully recyclable by consumers.

• Newly established, family owned NaturDrops GmbH has also hailed the GreenCan solution as functional and environmentally responsible when looking for a high quality packaging solution for its dog snacks. The sustainable design helps to minimise waste while maintaining the high standards and quality expected by NaturDrops’ customers. 

• Grands Moulins de Paris (GMP), a market leader in the supermarket flour sector, celebrated its 60th anniversary with special packaging for its Francine flagship Suprême flour. The limited edition design, comprising Sonoco’s GreenCan packaging, paid tribute to the brand’s heritage while reinforcing its shared commitment to sustainability.

• Austrian spice brand, Kotányi GmbH, partnered with Sonoco for an innovative packaging solution for its new range of herbs and spice blends, highlighting its commitment to sustainability. The GreenCan solution plays a crucial role in this commitment, offering a robust, practical and widely recyclable packaging alternative with an integrated paper lid.
