Sustainable Innovations Leading Packaging Coatings Trends
Industry players are increasingly focusing on developing eco-friendly internal coatings that meet the rising demand for safer aluminum and beverage packaging. These sustainable coatings serve as protective layers inside packaging, such as aluminum bottles, ensuring food and beverage safety while minimizing environmental impact through the use of green materials and low-emission manufacturing processes.

For example, in February 2025, PPG Industries Inc., a US-based coatings manufacturer, introduced the non-BPA PPG HOBA Pro 2848 internal coatings specifically designed for aluminum bottles at Paris Packaging Week 2025. This product line supports the growing need for sustainable packaging solutions for water, wine, beer, and other beverages. The coatings are free from BPA, PFAS?NI, and phenolics, providing safer contact between beverages and packaging while preventing corrosion and preserving product quality. This launch reflects the industry's broader pivot toward recyclable and non-toxic packaging materials, driven by consumer preferences and regulatory requirements. PPG also offers extensive global technical support and manufacturing capabilities, facilitating the widespread use of HOBA Pro 2848 across several industries, including beverage, food, pharmaceutical, and personal care.
