Beverage Cans Market Size To Reach $59.61 Billion By 2030

Beverage Cans Market Growth & Trends

The global beverage cans market size was estimated at USD 59.61 billion in 2030 and is expected to expand at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2024 to 2030. The demand for highly portable and superior beverage packaging for protection from the external environment is primarily contributing to market growth. The rising demand for aluminum cans on account of superior properties such as lightweight and growing aluminum recycling is further driving the market.

The continuous technological advancements in the market which include machinery automation, printing technology, and raw material advancements are further contributing to the market growth. For instance, Ball Corporation introduced the Dynamark variable printing technology that allows for customized printing of beverage cans with a single pallet. The technology offers numerous options for high-quality printing, keeping the time required to change the designs to a minimum.

The aluminum can segment is leading the global market with major revenue and volume share. Manufacturers are continuously focusing on research and development activities associated with aluminum cans to cater to the increasing demand for sustainability in the global market. For instance, The Coors Brewing Company uses ultraviolet (UV) light curing technology for its aluminum beverage cans. The company uses coating materials that cure when exposed to UV light and offers a low-cost alternative to the expensive heat treatments used in conventional convective heat ovens for curing the inks. In addition, the UV cured method creates lower emissions and a smaller waste stream owing to the lesser solvent usage compared to its alternatives.

The increasing demand for various fruit juices and sports drinks in can packaging is expected to benefit the market growth. Additionally, the growing consumption of ready-to-drink beverages that primarily uses cans as packaging is further boosting the market growth. Manufacturers operating in the fruit and vegetable juices market such as Nestle, Welch Foods Inc, and De Monte are increasingly focusing on offering attractive packaged juices to customers in order to attract them and are also moving toward sustainability.

Companies operating in the beverage industry establish direct contracts with beverage cans manufacturers to cater to their specific demands while mitigating the risk of price fluctuations. Direct supply agreements are observed between large-sized beverage companies and beverage cans manufacturers, wherein a high level of product customization is undertaken. These supply agreements guarantee uniform packaging demand, which eases the production and distribution planning for beverage companies.
