  It’s time to think outside of the can, and gain cost savings, “greener” packaging, and increase safety and usability with the #10 can replacement.

The tin can was developed over 200 years ago. Shortly after mass production of tin cans began, manufacturers switched to tin plated steel cans in the 19th Century. Then aluminum cans were introduced on the market in the 1960’s. [1] Now in the 21st Century Fres-co System USA has developed a superior solution to the #10 can― our flexible Sofcan™. We have designed and successfully implemented Sofcan™ in all sizes for different markets- but the focus of this article will be the #10 Can Replacement Pouch. Fres-co System’s flexible pouch has major gains, specifically in the areas of sustainability, cost reduction, and safety. Think of the Sofcan™ compared to the tin can in terms of an airplane compared to a hot air balloon.
