Meadow KAPSUL technology

-Care, an independent U.S. contract manufacturer, and Meadow, a Swedish
technology startup joined forces to bring ultra-lightweight aluminium to the HPC market. The Meadow KAPSUL revolutionises
packaging by transforming aluminium beverage cans into versatile prefill containers. Through a modification to the can’s end, this disruptive technology enables the use of an already optimal container across diverse sectors, including personal care, beauty, home care, and beyond. Additionally, the Meadow KAPSUL reduces
raw material consumption and lightens the can by eliminating the traditional pull tab. The result is a mess-free, premium experience for consumers, and an affordable circular solution for brands to drive circularity at scale. The new line is expected to be the active in
the market by 2025 and marks the beginning of the Meadow KAPSUL filling footprint in the US. Together, Meadow and C-Care will be able to offer turnkey service to support brands to switch to circular packaging and adopt this revolutionary technology.
