Daiwa Can has started supplying its resealable bottle shaped aluminum can, the New Bottle Can, for wines in Japan - a first-time development for a capped and diminutive bottle can in the world. |
 |
| Wines are highly corrosive and had been thought incompatible with aluminum cans. Daiwa Can has newly developed anti-corrosive specifications exclusively fit for wines and has now launched the New Bottle Can in the Japanese market (see Photo No.1). |
 |
| The company has also developed a matching drinking cup, which can be attached to the canned wine. Consumer convenience is enhanced by this invention, as its portability opens new locales to wine-lovers (see Photo No.2). |
 |
| Winemaker, Monde Distilleries, Ltd., Yamanashi Prefecture, has employed this new can for its wines. The company compared the usual glass wine bottles to the New Bottle Can; it evaluated the can's features, i.e. lightness, non-breakable composition, excellent design, protection of the contents including UV blocking, etc., in addition to the convenience and novelty the drinking cup offers. |
 |
| The wines in the New Bottle Can will be sold mainly by Nippon Restaurant Enterprise Co., Ltd. on JR-East's (East Japan Railway Company) Shinkansen bullet trains and other express trains and in restaurants inside train stations, and by Monde Distilleries at its own stores. Sales outlets will increase thereafter. |
 |
| A new style of wine inclusion will be established, on leisure jaunts, business trips, outdoor activities, etc., during which consumers can easily enjoy premium wines. |
 |
| Daiwa Can hopes to expand sales of the New Bottle Can designed for wines into the global marketplace, and it will maintain development to increase customer product value worldwide. |
 |
| Daiwa Can will continue its research and development every day and propose new cans to satisfy its global customers' needs. |
