The cosmetics and personal care sector accounts for a major United States metal cans market share amid the rising environmental consciousness

The cosmetics and personal care sector holds a significant share of the market. With increasing environmental concerns, manufacturers are attempting to incorporate different metals in the packaging of their products.

 

Metal is durable and more stable than other packaging solutions as it can withstand heat and temperature changes. Metal cans are widely used to pack multiple personal care products, including shower gels, shampoos, conditioners, and fragrances, among others. Additionally, metal captivates customers as it looks sophisticated and adds luxury to the product.

 

In the food and beverage industry, metal cans are widely used to preserve the quality of food products and offer benefits such as recyclability. The growing consumption of carbonated beverages, beer, and fruit juices is also propelling the United States metal cans market growth.

 

Besides, metal cans are widely used in the painting sector to withstand the weight and pressure of the paint. Such cans provide excellent fire resistance, enhanced stability in harsh working conditions, resealability, and barrier protection against oxygen, light, and gas.

 

The demand for steel cans is significantly rising as they can withstand high pressure and durable

Steel cans enjoy substantial popularity as they are durable, withstand high pressures, eliminate spoilage of contents, and boast extremely high levels of bacteria, air, or light. Steel is a highly recyclable metal and nearly 98% of all the steel is recycled.  It promotes sustainability as it can be recycled repetitively without the loss of quality. Hot-rolled steel is the most recycled steel type and is generally made from scrap metal.

 

Meanwhile, aluminium cans are recyclable, lightweight, stackable, stable, and more valuable than plastics and glass. The infinite recyclability and versatility of aluminium make it extensively used in packaging solutions, including cans.  In 2021, the United States was the third-largest exporter of aluminium cans with a total of $52.8M. Furthermore, the country imported $33.4M of aluminium cans in the same year, boosting the growth of the United States aluminium cans market.
