The aluminium can, invented in the late 1950's, launched a revolution in the beverage industry and planted a seed of environmentalism in the mindset of the World. 

Today, when we think of recycling, drink cans are usually at the top of our list which makes them the most recycled beverage container, at a rate of 69% worldwide.


In 2001, the United States alone, produced 2.982 million tons of recycled aluminium scrap. 

Here is just one way in which we can reuse 1 of the 52 billion cans that are in Worldwide production.
