CO-RO Joins Two Sides To Promote Sustainable Soft Drink Packaging

CO-RO is a Danish company with a rich heritage. Together with their local partners around the world, they deliver over 3.5 billion servings of high-quality fruit-based drinks and ice lollies every year. Their beloved brands, including Sunquick, Suntop, Suncola, and Sun Lolly, have become household names, synonymous with quality and great taste.

CO-RO’s products are available in over 80 markets and a significant part of their packaging is paper based. By opting for paper-based packaging, CO-RO not only reduces its carbon footprint but also supports the recycling industry, as paper is one of the most recycled materials globally.

Crown’s Sustainable Beverage Cans Help Convey Health and Freshness for New Mineral Water Line From Socorro Bebidas

Brazilian beverage producer Socorro Bebidas (Socorro) has expanded its partnership with Crown Embalagens Metálicas da Amazônia S.A., a subsidiary of Crown Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: CCK) (Crown) (www.crowncork.com), to launch Acquíssima Sabor flavored mineral water in 350ml (12oz) CrownSleek cans. The premium zero-calorie drink features natural aromas, offering a health-conscious alternative for consumers to stay hydrated and incorporate key nutrients into their daily diets. The line made its debut with two flavors, Lychee and Green Apple, and is currently available in Acquíssima stores, restaurants and supermarkets in Brazil. Socorro also previously utilized CrownSleek cans to package its Acquíssima mineral water brand, its first entry into the water market. Total canned water volume in Brazil has increased by nearly 7x between 2021 and 2022, demonstrating a growing trend in the region for water packaged in aluminum and a continued shift away from tap and bulk water. When considering the package format for the brand, Socorro knew it needed to help convey the refreshing and health-conscious nature of the beverage, while also delivering on sustainability. The inherent properties of metal packaging, including providing a powerful barrier against light and oxygen, helps maintain the product's freshness. Aluminum beverage cans are also infinitely recyclable and are the most recycled beverage package in the world. These characteristics resonate with Brazilian consumers, who have recently helped drive the country's recycling rate for aluminum beverage cans to an astounding 100%.
