What is Horizon™
In June 2023, Eviosys launched the first version of the Horizon™ metal overcap creating a seamless infinitely recyclable from-the-can to-the-top solution for your product
Ultra-light shallow overcap Horizon™ was specifically designed to cover tins intended for markets such as infant formula, tea, coffee, biscuits, etc.

Reduce CO2 emissions by 33%
This new version takes a new step to sustainable packaging with additional weight reduction making it possible to reduce CO2 emissions by 33% (compared to the first version).
Infinitely recyclable solution from the bottom end to the top
Facilitates the replacement of plastic lids currently present on certain metal tins intended to be reclosed (biscuits, coffee, infant milk, etc.) with a single-material solution that is entirely in metal from the bottom end to the top and therefore infinitely recyclable.
Even lighter and optimised for wider range
We succeeded in developing the Horizon™ metal overcap to be even lighter by reducing its weight from 15 grams to 5.8 grams and now available for 99 mm diameter can.
A solution that helps brands convert to recyclables in view of new packaging regulations
Legislative developments are increasingly restrictive regarding the use of plastic, as with the PPWR (Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation) and additional local regulations across Europe.
At Eviosys we aim to help companies meet these requirements thanks to Horizon™. Indeed, unlike plastics, which are still mostly incinerated or buried, metal can be recycled endlessly without losing its properties. Metal is one of the only two permanent materials that can be recycled without material degradation. This material helps break the destructive cycle of extraction-incineration and reduce pollution of soils, oceans and wildlife by plastic waste.
A survey reveals that 45% of companies plan to use fully recyclable packaging within one to three years and 90% within ten year.
*Survey by Focaldata of 2,000 European consumers and 600 business leaders across various sectors including manufacturing, retail and consumer goods in December 2023 and March 2024 for Eviosys.
A sustainable packaging solution that improves the consumer experience
The possibility of resealing the tins is popular among consumers who wish to better preserve their products such as biscuits or powders and thus reduce food waste.
Made of metal, this lid is durable and strong, it will not get yellow or deformed over time, unlike plastic overcaps on the market.
Metal packaging’s environmental benefits are undeniable. Its recyclability influences purchasing decisions for 82% of respondents, while 94% are already repurposing metal gift tins for various uses, showcasing its versatility. *Survey conducted by Focaldata , commissioned by Eviosys in November 2023.
