Cans Are Cool: Why the Industry in Pushing for 80+% Recycling by 2030 @IPSCanmaking

Uploaded March 2026 | Updated September 2026, 3 weeks ago

Aluminum beverage cans already lead major packaging types in global recycling rate at roughly 75%, with industry groups pushing for 80%+ by 2030 and near-total circularity by 2050. Recycling aluminum uses ~95% less energy than primary production; reducing emissions and lowering energy costs. As global can demand continues to grow, higher recycling rates support both sustainability and plant-level efficiency.

$IPS CanSCHOOL - Structured Can Plant Training Short videos don’t replace real training. When learning is passive, operators retain only a small fraction of what they see, and that’s not enough to run a line confidently. Hands-on, applied training is different. Retention jumps significantly when operators are engaged, practicing, and learning in context. That’s the foundation of CanSCHOOL™. Structured, practical training built designed to improve real operator performance on the floor. Covering beverage and food cans and ends, with new subscription options to scale training across your entire plant. Reach out to learn how CanSCHOOL™ can strengthen your training program. #CanSCHOOL #CanPlantTraining #CanMaking #CanMakers$
