Europe Food Can Market Size Worth $12.56 Billion By 2025

The Europe food can market size is expected to reach USD 12.56 billion by 2025, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Increasing demand for processed eatable products by the consumers in the region is expected to drive the industry growth.

The process of preserving food through their processing and sealing in an airtight container is known as ‘canning’. The shelf life provided through the use of the canning technique is usually 1-5 years, although some rare cases such as canned dried lentils can last as much as 30 years in the edible form. The concept of food cans has been around for as long as the early years of Napoleonic wars, wherein Nicolas Appert, a French confectioner and brewer, found a way to seal food in glass jars. This technique caught on rather quickly, with canned food becoming a status symbol in the European middle-class households. The Europe food can market has consequently seen rapid growth through the years.

Recycling Of Food Cans Has Numerous Advantages….

Food cans are found in all shapes and sizes, with a vast majority of countries around the globe having these products in commercial kitchens. They provide consumers with safe, nutritional and economical food options, with the added advantage of long-term shelf life and sustained food quality. Food cans are also environment-friendly, and the Can Manufacturer’s Institute and The Aluminum Association have sprung up some interesting facts regarding its usefulness and recyclability, such as:

  • Aluminum beverage containers can be recycled and put back on the shelf in just 2 months.
  • Steel food cans may undergo recycling multiple times without losing their quality or strength, giving them a long product cycle, while their recycling rate is 2.5 times higher than other packaging techniques.
  • Almost 75% of the aluminum produced in the United States is still being used presently, speaking volumes about its recycling capabilities.

Canned Food Has High Nutritional Value

Also, contrary to popular belief, food cans, be it for vegetables or seafood, help to maintain most of the food product’s nutrients. Majority of the minerals as well as fat-soluble vitamins such as A, D, E, K are all retained. However, the presence of water-soluble vitamins, such as B and C, may witness damage, as the canning process generally involves high heat. However, these vitamins may also be lost during cooking at home with fresh ingredients. Another fact to be noted is that while there may be decrease in the number of certain components in the product, they also help in increasing the amount of other healthy compounds.
