What customers say
Thank you for your partnership over the years. Think of everything we've done together: all the launches and all the revisions. You pushed forward with me every time. Rising to the occasion again and again is exhausting, and I'm grateful you did it with me. I'm always here in the background, so if your team ever needs help, tell them to come find me.
Printed can graphics lead, craft cider maker Super helpful and specific.
Beverage industry partner Our graphics and pilot work earned 5 out of 5 from our can manufacturer's graphics department in every category: submission accuracy, speed, handling of rejections, and customer management.
Graphics department, can manufacturer It's great to work with nice people.
National beverage brand Arc has always been great to us. Customer service is quick to respond and on top of things, and it has saved us more than once when we needed inventory at the last minute.
Craft brewery, Colorado, during an on-site visit I'm over the moon with our co-packer. The support, attention to detail, quality control, standards and professionalism are second to none. It really feels like they're part of my team.

Questions?
How do I order brite cans?
Email us the size, quantity and delivery location. We confirm availability, price and next steps.
How do I order printed cans?
Let us know the artwork, quantity and timing. For direct print, tell us whether this is a reprint or new artwork, and describe any design requirements. Direct print takes 6–12 weeks from order acceptance with approved artwork, or 14–24 weeks with new artwork; digital print takes 4 weeks.
What are the minimums and lead times?
Each size page lists them by type. Brite cans start at one pallet on 12 oz Standard, 12 oz Sleek and 16 oz Standard, and direct print at one truckload. Published digital minimums start at one pallet; ask about smaller digital runs or sizes without a published minimum. From order acceptance, brite cans and ends take 1–8 weeks, digital print 4 weeks, and direct print 6–12 weeks with approved artwork or 14–24 weeks with new artwork. We will confirm lead times when we provide your quote.
What should I send first?
A size and quantity is enough to start. Put them in an email; if you are not sure, say so and we will help you choose.
