Founded and funded by some of the country’s best business brains and run by some of Australasia’s brightest beverage container specialists, Recorp is fuelled by a passion for innovation and aluminium. Delivering the broadest range of can formats to choose from, offering our customers a literal playground to craft their beverage vision.
We have designed and invested heavily in the best combinations of latest-in-globe technology that allows for multi-height, multi-diameter manufacturing that is flexible, responsive, designed for quick changeouts, and speed. With a team mentality to match.
We're not here to sit on our hands. We're here to help you get to market faster and more efficiently, with optimised inventory management systems, lightning-fast NPD to market timelines and a strong value equation.
And forget about hefty commitments, we come with low MOQs with a belief in freedom, flexibility, and forging a path that suits your business, not the other way around.
Our spirit drives us to champion carefully light-weighted-cans, reducing costs, emissions and leaving a smaller environmental footprint while preserving the durability and quality you expect.
We're not just manufacturing cans, we're crafting an experience and redefining the game.
