Balancing work, personal wellbeing and social lives has become a challenge for today’s Americans — 80 percent of whom feel that being healthy requires sacrifices.1
Canned foods, which have long been a staple in kitchens around the world, help solve this challenge by enabling consumers to prepare delicious and nutritious meals in a fraction of the time that it takes to prepare meals from scratch. Along with their convenience, food cans contain healthy and wholesome ingredients that are a starting point for a plethora of recipes, such as canned sauces. For example, canned tomato sauce is a great base for a savory chicken parmesan dish or a zesty meat sauce. Thanks to the inherent properties of metal packaging, foods packaged in cans also maintain their flavor profile and nutritional benefits while providing consumers with an expedient and easy solution.
A New Classic
Crown’s metal closures for polyethylene terephthalate (PET) containers bring the same level of convenience to foods like sauces that have traditionally been packed in glass. The unique package combination has many benefits for both brands and consumers.
