[**Dozz**](https://dozz.eu/?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) **is presenting chilled, ready-to-eat soup in an aluminium can, a product designed to be consumed straight from the pack and recycled at end-of-life.**

Thought to be the first product of its kind, the solution negates the need for a bowl, microwave, or cutlery when consuming soup on the go.

Apparently, the format unlocks a chilled shelf life of 4-8 months, depending on the recipe. It is anticipated to provide flexibility for retailers and out-of-home outlets – having reportedly gained traction with several major European stores – and meet consumer demand for convenient, waste-free and sustainability-minded packaging.

The product will officially launch at the [Lunch!](https://www.lunchshow.co.uk/?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) show in London on 24th – 25th September 2025\. Visitors can view the can at stand L222 in the Innovation Gallery.

“Today’s consumers are time-constrained but more health-conscious than ever,” says Ender Bolat, general manager at Dozz. “We created Dozz to be an on-the-go solution, something fast, nutritious and enjoyable.

“Whether you’re commuting, in back-to-back meetings or simply don’t have time to cook, DOZZ offers real food that’s ready when you are, with no heating and no hassle.”

A range of ten flavours, some containing meat and others plant-based, will soon be available to buy in the UK. These include Gazpacho, Mixed Vegetable, Yogurt and Mint, Tomato, Broccoli, Chicken, Chili Bean, Lentil, Mushroom, and Spinach.

The announcement follows a previous [report](https://packagingeurope.com/news/report-states-record-580000-tonnes-of-aluminium-recycled-from-beverage-cans/12489.article?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) by [Metal Packaging Europe](https://metalpackagingeurope.org/?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) and [European Aluminium](https://european-aluminium.eu/?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io), which suggested that the overall recycling rate for aluminium beverage cans in the European Union, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Norway, and Iceland has reached 74.6%. Despite a 1% drop, the total amount of aluminium recycled from cans has apparently increased to a ‘record level’ of 580,000 tonnes.

In another can-based redesign, [Asahi](https://www.asahiinternational.com/?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) has [upgraded](https://packagingeurope.com/asahi-floats-real-lemons-inside-drink-cans-using-co2-released-by-opened-lid/12951.article?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) one of its beverage cans; the pack now uses the release of carbon dioxide when the can is opened to float real lemon slices to the surface of the drink for a ‘unique sensory experience’.
