Thai Beverage Can

What Thai Beverage Can does

Thai Beverage Can Limited (TBC) is Thailand's and Southeast Asia's leading aluminium beverage cans and ends manufacturer, founded in 1996 as a Thai-American joint venture between Berli Jucker Public Company Limited (BJC), Standard Can Company Limited, and Ball Corporation. The company produces a portfolio of aluminium packaging — beverage cans, beverage can ends, aluminium bottles, and ROPP aluminium caps — using technology licensed from Ball Corporation. Its manufacturing process spans cupping, drawing, cleaning, 360-degree/6-color printing, necking, and leak detection, with 69% recycled aluminium content and ASI certification covering responsible sourcing across the full aluminium value chain.

TBC operates a B2B manufacturing model, selling cans, ends, and bottles directly to enterprise beverage customers (Coca-Cola, Nestlé, ThaiBev, ThaiNamthip, TCP, Haad Thip) for filling and seaming at customer facilities. The company is headquartered in Nongkhae, Saraburi Province, Thailand, operating two factories (TBC 1 and TBC 2) with 9 production lines, 598 employees, and 10 product variants. Recent activity (Sept 2023 line inauguration, Jan 2024 ROPP caps launch, March 2026 new production line) signals ongoing capacity and product expansion. Revenue is generated through long-term supply agreements; no public pricing is disclosed. The company also markets sub-brands such as Crystal Can (canned drinking water) and 150ml Pink Milk, alongside a Can Cafe event service. Sustainability credentials — ASI certification, Circular Mark certification, multiple ESG and supplier awards in 2025–2026, and a Saraburi Sandbox low-carbon partnership — are central to its positioning and customer procurement qualifications.
