Why Cans?

At Silgan Containers, we firmly believe that metal cans are the optimal choice for food packaging. They offer unparalleled versatility, durability, and safety, while exhibiting an unwavering commitment to environmental responsibility.

Metal cans are 100% recyclable, meaning their valuable metal content can be recovered and repurposed endlessly without compromising quality. This inherent recyclability contributes significantly to reducing landfill waste and conserving natural resources.

Beyond their eco-friendly attributes, metal cans provide exceptional protection for food products, safeguarding them from contamination, moisture, and light degradation. This extended shelf life minimizes food waste and ensures that consumers can enjoy fresh, nutritious meals even months after production.

Why Canning?

The practice of canning offers a remarkable way to preserve the nutritional value of foods, providing a convenient and reliable means of preserving important nutrients for extended periods. Several factors contribute to the nutritional excellence of canned foods. The canning process itself involves heating food to a high temperature, which effectively eliminates harmful microorganisms while minimizing nutrient loss.
