It noted that aluminium cans are lighter than tinplate, more resistant to damage and cool more quickly.<\/p>\n

The company said the lower weight can reduce transport costs and fuel use, which in turn can reduce emissions.<\/p>\n

It highlighted that the aluminium format is easier to handle and open, and that it helps maintain taste and freshness. The company also described the new cans as improving product presentation.<\/p>\n

BAIL CEO Sherab Namgay explained that the switch to aluminium cans bring the product\u2019s packaging and design in line with global expectations.<\/p>\n

Environmental considerations were also cited. The company noted that aluminium can be recycled repeatedly without a loss in quality.<\/p>\n

Alongside the packaging change, BAIL is increasing its export activity.<\/p>\n

It continues to supply Bangladesh and India, including Siliguri and Guwahati, and has entered the Bodhgaya market.<\/p>\n

The company said its first shipment to Australia is scheduled for next week, and that it is also preparing to enter Thailand.<\/p>\n

The CEO said that the company\u2019s exports focus on beverages with fewer chemicals and preservatives and lower sugar content, and that this approach supports Bhutan\u2019s image overseas. However, BAIL\u2019s juice formulation has not changed.<\/p>\n

It continues to use fruit purchased from local farmers, processed at its food-safety-certified facility in Lingmethang, Monggar, reported The Bhutan Live<\/a>.<\/p>\n
