CCL Container takes home three honors at this year’s Can of the Year Awards.

Put a lid on this year’s Can of the Year Awards. CCL Container, North America's leading producer of impact-extruded aluminum packaging, has been honored with three awards at the 2005 Can of the Year (COY) Awards ceremony in Barcelona, Spain.

CCL won gold in the food category for TRIMSPA and Winfuel, silver in the new re-sealable beverage container category for Cadbury Beverage Americas Snapple Elements, and silver in the aerosol category for Proctor & Gamble's Febreze Air Effects. Snapple Elements energy drink, also marketed in an aluminum bottle, was acknowledged for its extreme graphics and contoured easy grip.

"We are grateful to be recognized again at COY Awards," said CCL Vice President of Sales and Marketing Ed Martin. "These awards represent not only the great package development team at CCL, but also great customers that are willing to embrace creativity, push technology, and ultimately take their packaging, and their brands, to a higher level. Considering the many outstanding entries from around the world, we are extremely pleased to win in three very distinct categories."

This marks the third consecutive year that CCL Container was honored at the COY Awards. The company won silver in the aerosol category the past two years, plus a gold award in 2003 for Cadbury Beverage America's Mistic RE aluminum bottle.

CCL Container is North America's leading producer of recyclable aluminum packaging.
