Composite Cans (Fiber Cans): Durable, Recyclable, and Built for Everyday Performance

Composite cans, also known as fiber cans, combine paperboard with optional barrier layers to deliver a strong, reliable, and recyclable packaging solution. Ideal for powdered products, snacks, supplements, drink mixes, and more, composite cans offer brands a versatile option that balances protection, cost-efficiency, and environmental responsibility. Whether you’re looking for large-format containers or single-serve portions, these cylindrical fiber cans are a modern answer to multi-material packaging challenges.

Key Benefits of Composite Cans

  • Recyclable Paper-Based Construction:

Made primarily from paperboard with minimal use of other materials, composite cans can be designed for recyclability, supporting your brand’s sustainability commitments.

  • Excellent Barrier Properties:

Optional liners (foil, plastic, or biodegradable) provide the necessary moisture, oxygen, or grease resistance depending on your product’s requirements.

  • Sturdy and Protective:

Rigid enough to safeguard sensitive contents like powders, snacks, and supplements during transit, storage, and everyday use.

  • Custom Sizes and Diameters:

Offered in a wide range of heights and diameters, fiber cans can be tailored to match product volume, brand aesthetics, and retail space.

Outstanding Features

  • Custom Branding Options:

High-quality printing and full-wrap labels give your packaging a 360° canvas for vibrant branding, storytelling, and compliance messaging.

  • Variety of Closure Styles:

Pair with metal ends, plastic overcaps, membrane seals, or peelable foil tops, each offering different user experiences and barrier levels.

  • Ideal for Food, Supplements, and Dry Goods:

Commonly used for protein powders, snack mixes, drink powders, nutraceuticals, teas, and pet food, any dry product that needs both presentation and protection.

  • Consumer-Friendly Format:

Easy to open, reseal (with the right closure), and recycle, making it a favorite among consumers looking for both convenience and eco-conscious packaging.

  • Lightweight and Cost-Effective:

Compared to rigid plastic or glass containers, fiber cans are more economical to produce, ship, and store, reducing your operational footprint.
