Ball Unveils First ASI-Certified Aluminum Aerosol Cans

Industry Insights from Next Move Strategy Consulting

Ball Corporation has partnered with Brazilian brands Soffie and Aeroflex to introduce the aluminum aerosol cans that are the first to receive certification from the Aluminum Stewardship Initiative (ASI). The launch positions Ball and its partners at the forefront of certified sustainable aluminum packaging for personal and home care products. 

A visible standard for sustainable packaging

The ASI certification confirms that the aluminum used in these aerosol cans meets stringent environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria, delivering an assurance of responsible sourcing and production for brand owners and consumers. 

A company statement and partner perspective

Ball described the launch as more than a product release — a deliberate demonstration of purpose that aims to make sustainability straightforward for retail customers by placing certified packaging on shelves in a way that is both noticeable and scalable. 

Aeroflex’s executive leadership underlined that the result reflects the company’s values and long-term vision, noting that the partnership with Ball enabled them to combine innovation with a clear commitment to environmental responsibility for customers. 

Built through cross-functional collaboration

Ball said the development of the ASI-certified aerosol cans was the outcome of cooperation across its commercial, sustainability, supply-chain and R&D teams — highlighting an integrated approach to bringing certified packaging to market.
