Digital can printing company NOMOQ is opening its new production factory for beverage cans in the UK.

NOMOQ CEO Peter Stein said: “Following large demand for fully recyclable, lightweight and shatterproof cans from UK brands, coupled with a diverse and surging national craft beverage culture, the UK was quickly identified as an area for growth.

“We’re excited to provide beverage producers access to high-quality cans, digitally printed with millions of colours and shades with no minimum order quantity which supports tight cash flows or storage limitations.”

Around 30 jobs will be created with the site production beverage cans that range from 250ml to 500ml.

NOMOQ’s first UK customer is Brulo, an Edinburgh-based craft beer company.

Brulo beer co-founder James Brown added:“Our beer is for the modern world and therefore it needed a cutting-edge high-quality can. Design plays a key role in the experience of craft beer and that’s no different for us just because our beers are non-alcoholic. We were blown away by NOMOQ’s quality and creativity which aligned with our brand values and we can’t wait to see our relationship grow as our range develops.” 

Last month, Ardagh Metal Packaging announced it was purchasing a controlling stake in NOMOQ.
