Today, it is one of the brand's icons and is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The blue cans begin their journey in Hamburg, where Beiersdorf produces the iconic packaging. From there, they are shipped all over the world and filled locally - a process that combines tradition with global reach. <strong>In 2024, more than four blue cans were sold per second worldwide<\/strong> - online and offline.<\/p>\n<p>The recently revised design language features circular elements as a nod to the iconic can - a subtle sign of the emotional significance of the product and its presence throughout the portfolio. Beiersdorf continuously invests in sustainable packaging solutions and resource-saving production processes. One example:<strong> Since 2024, every blue can has been made from at least 80 per cent recycled aluminium<\/strong> - This significantly reduces the CO\u2082 footprint.<\/p><div class=\"packa-in-post-alle\" style=\"text-align: center;\" id=\"packa-1571736001\"><div id=\"packa-2865853752\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/newsletter\/\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"PJ Self-promotion English 03\"><!--noptimize--><img src=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03.png\" alt=\"\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03.png 840w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-300x75.png 300w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-768x192.png 768w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-18x5.png 18w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-332x83.png 332w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-664x166.png 664w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-688x172.png 688w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 840px) 100vw, 840px\" width=\"840\" height=\"210\"  style=\" max-width: 100%; height: auto;\" \/><!--\/noptimize--><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n<blockquote><p>\u201eThe design has stood the test of time and today connects generations.
