Beginning March 1, custom Ball Aluminum Cups can be shipped in 7 to 10 business days, without bulk order requirements. The new program allows distributors to help clients get last-minute drinkware for corporate events, festivals or brand activations, without sacrificing sustainability or impact, the supplier notes.
“The best promotional products aren’t just giveaways – they’re experiences,” said Felix Soliz, president of VisionUSA. “The Ball Aluminum Cup isn’t just another cup – it’s a statement piece that reinforces your brand’s quality, attention to sustainability and attention to detail.”
On its website, Ball Corp., which manufactures the cups, points out that aluminum is easily recyclable since it can be separated easily from other substrates in the waste stream using eddy current technology and is a step toward creating a more circular economy.
“Approximately 70% of all aluminum cans are recycled globally, making the can the world’s most recycled packaging product,” Ball explains. “In fact, nearly 75% of all aluminum ever produced is still in use today. Thanks to the well-established recycling infrastructure, a recycled aluminum package can be back on the store shelf in as little as 60 days.”
VisionUSA launched its partnership with Ball Corp. to offer aluminum cups back in April 2023. It’s not the only product with a sustainability bent the supplier has brought into its portfolio. In February 2024, VisionUSA partnered with ZOKU to offer stainless-steel drinkware that has a policy of planting one tree per bottle purchased.
