Ardagh Metal Packaging-Europe (AMP-Europe) has announced the opening of its new, advanced laboratory in Bonn, Germany with a full range of services now available.

This marks an important step in strengthening customer and market support while investing in the future of the beverage can industry. The facility is designed to enhance customer service, ensure food legal compliance, and provide expanded capabilities for innovation and knowledge development.

The laboratory project began in October 2025 with the preparation and fit-out of the new facility. Thanks to careful planning and seamless coordination, the move to the new laboratory site was completed while maintaining full operational continuity, ensuring AMP customers experienced no disruption.

The new laboratory delivers comprehensive technical support to AMP-Europe production facilities, customers, and R&D teams. Equipped with advanced capabilities in metal can packaging technology and material analysis, it ensures food compliance and high-quality packaging performance.

The team evaluates material compatibility with new beverages and conducts in-depth defect investigations. With in-house can‑filling facilities that replicate real production conditions, the laboratory enhances process optimisation and supports the development of safe, innovative metal can packaging solutions.

The new laboratory strengthens AMP-Europe’s technical capabilities and reinforces AMP’s commitment to partnering with customers to meet evolving market needs.
