Noticing fewer plastic rings in stores? It's because Canada has banned them. And finding an alternative to plastic rings isn't just a good idea - it's a necessity. So it’s crucial to choose an option that’s usable and doesn't just create more waste, defeating the purpose.
One of the first questions we received was, 'Can these cardboard can carriers handle wet cans?' We decided to find out with a fun dunk test. While we're waiting for the official lab report from our supplier MARTEC, here's a simple and playful demo to show you how our carriers hold up in water. Spoiler: they're tougher than they look.
Simple and straightforward, our 3D-printed handheld applicator is sturdy and easy to store. Just place a carrier into the mold, push until you hear that satisfying click, and you’re good to go. For faster, less tiring application, pair it with a manual press. Perfect for smaller batches or if you’re just testing things out.
Looking for something more hands-off? Our pneumatic applicator handles up to 36 cans per minute, taking care of the heavy lifting (or pushing in this case) so you don’t have to. It’s a reliable option that keeps things moving efficiently.
When speed is key, our automatic applicator is built to keep up. Made from stainless steel, it can handle up to 250 cans per minute, mostly hands-off. And depending on where you’re located, the cost might even be cheaper than labour, especially if it matches your canning schedule and speed.
If you are browsing around, you may come across similar cardboard can carriers alternatives, and you’ve probably already noticed that our can carriers actually cover the entire top of the cans. This prevents dust and other debris from getting into the cans during transport while providing maximum space for branding. The MOQ will vary based on your needs, so please contact us for more details.
