This expansion will help meet the country’s increasing demand for beverage cans and demonstrates Crown’s ongoing commitment to grow with our customers,” commented Djalma Novaes, President of Crown’s Americas Division. “The aluminum can for beverages is perfect for the Brazilian market; it is recyclable and sustainable, easily shipped, and more efficiently preserves the quality of the beverage for the end consumer.”
