Canmaker "Can of the Year" Awards 2016
Thursday, December 1, 2016

CROWN Beverage Packaging North America won the top award for the InnoValve™ can used by La Colombe for the launch of its Draft Latte coffee in the U.S. earlier this year.

Crown’s InnoValve™ can was created for textured beverages and melds the company’s aerosol and beverage technologies. The 10oz sleek style can is comprised of a proprietary one-way valve/grommet at the bottom of the can that compresses a nitrous oxide gas into the drink upon opening. The technology creates the textured foam that gives the Draft Latte its distinctive café style quality.

Crown was also successful in the ‘Ends, Caps and Closures’ category of the awards, with its consumer experience-enhancing 360 End® and collaboration with innovative craft brewers London Beer Factory.
