Soudronic unveils welded-seam-free three-piece food can prototype

Soudronic has developed GreenPeel, a three-piece can concept for food and pet food that replaces the conventional welded side seam with a directly sealed peel-off foil. The prototype is being introduced to canmakers and fillers, with Soudronic developing a production system capable of speeds up to 750 cans per minute.

Why this mattersA weld-free seam could simplify canmaking lines and change material specifications for three-piece food cans if adopted commercially.

• GreenPeel replaces the conventional welded side seam with a directly sealed peel-off foil.
• The concept targets three-piece cans for food and pet food.
• Soudronic is developing a production system for the format.
• The line is designed to run at speeds of up to 750 cans per minute.
