  • 1.  US- co-pack manufacturer for juice beverage in alum cans- Tunnel Pasteurizer capability for Sparkling juice bev.

    Posted 01-09-2026 10:03 AM

    Looking for some recommendations to extend our external manufacturing capabilities to find some additional US co-packer partners to explore that can produce sparkling juice beverages in various sizes of aluminum cans (ranging in size up to 16 fl. oz, both sleek and standard cans) , that have tunnel pasteurizer capabilities, carbonation and nitrogen dosing, desirable from a Food Safety Quality standpoint, proper certifications, can manage smaller and larger size production runs, as well as options for multi-packing into 4 packs, 6 packs, etc.  Any suggestions and contacts would be greatly appreciated!

    Eric- suggest a conversation with Refresco, Manna Beverages or Drink Pak.  All have multiple plants, processes and key geographic locations for beverage filling and packaging. Joe Norris

    Joe,

    thank you for the potential options to explore. Very much appreciated! I am familiar with Refresco, but not the other two suggestions. 

    Best Regards!!!
