In recent times, metal cans have been steadily losing market share to PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) bottles and HDPE (High Density Polyethylene), especially in food and beverages. Europe is the most dominant market for biodegradable plastics while Asia-Pacific, owing to significant domestic demand, is expected to be the fastest growing market in the next five years. Fluctuating raw material prices and threat of substitution from plastics are key challenges faced by the industry participants. Also, cost incompetency compared to paper and plastic packaging; along with lack of microwave capability is a critical road-block for metal cans.

The global market for food and beverage metal cans was estimated at 329,357 million cans in 2010 and is expected to reach 385,547 million cans in 2016, growing at a CAGR of 2.83% from 2011 to 2016. North America and Europe are the leading consumers of food and beverage metal cans. However, both these markets are saturated and expected to grow at meagre CAGR of 1.96% and 2.08% from 2011 to 2016, in terms of volumes respectively.
