Sealants for beer and beverage cans

Keeping beverages safe and protected requires high-performance can sealants that are reliable. Can makers need cost-effective and sustainable solutions for sealing cans that enable efficiency and full compliance with food laws and safety legislation.

Extended shelf-life

Henkel’s range of solvent-based can sealants for beer and beverage applications are based on rubber dissolution in solvent. They have excellent mechanical stability and are not sensitive to air entrainment when mixed, while offering a shelf-life of up to 12 months.

Our state-of-the-art water-based products for sealing cans for this market are based on latex in water. They ensure a hermetic seal and offer a wide application latitude for placement and film weight, from high-on-shoulder (HOS) to standard curl-flat (C-F). These technologies are designed to perform while under compression in double seams constructed to industry guidelines like those from the Can Manufacturer’s Institute (CMI) and SEFEL Seams in Europe. They deliver excellent lining performance at low applied cost, with best-in-class mechanical stability and balanced adhesion for faster, easier tabletop cleaning.
