The Canmaker Innovations 2026
The current edition of Innovations is the latest in a long-running annual series that presents its contents across two distinct sections.
Section one is a review of the very finest metal packaging, with detailed analysis of the award winners, together with individual illustrations and descriptions of all of the winners and short-listed entries. This is a report that canmakers and brand-owners turn to again and again to explore world-leading cans with impact.
Covering every type of metal packaging from food, beverage, general line and aerosol through to caps, lids and closures, these are the cans that are guiding the market. Further inspiration can be drawn from the entries and winners in the prototype category – a show-stopping award that has gained legendary status for presenting packaging developments before they enter the market.
Section two of Innovations contains a wide-ranging selection of stories reviewing the latest equipment, services, materials and technological developments. It is an invaluable work for canmakers, with the contents laid out in sub-sections to provide a speedy reference point for anyone renewing, maintaining, enhancing or upgrading their production facilities.
