No more BPA in ConAgra Foods’ cans

ConAgra Foods eliminates the use of BPA liners in its cans, which are now made with coating systems that use polyester or acrylic materials.

Pw 139273 Product Lockup

In late July 2015, ConAgra Foods, Inc. announced that all of the company’s facilities in the U.S. and Canada have completed the transition to cans without Bisphenol A (BPA) liners. While ConAgra Foods began canning some food in non-BPA lined cans in 2010, other foods required a different approach, due to their acidity or other characteristics.

Extensive research and trials to find safe, long-lasting, and economical packaging led the company to Ardagh Group, a global supplier of glass and metal packaging solutions. Ardagh invested in capacity and capability to meet ConAgra Foods’ needs and began providing the company with non-BPA cans earlier this year. The cans are made in new, state-of-the-art production facilities equipped with advanced technologies having coating systems that use polyester or acrylic materials.
