Pop Top Lock market share can come from aluminum cans, plastic bottles and/or glass.
Pop Top Lock reusability global impact
Reusing 5% | CO2 Emissions: global transport is reduced by 4.8 million tons annually.
This is equivalent to removing 930,000 cars from the road.Reusing 5% | Energy savings: 3.89 billion kWh annually. Enough energy to power 380,000 U.S. homes annually.
Reusing 5% | Beverage waste reduction: Billions of liters saved annually.
Reusing 5% | Aluminum Raw Mining:
5% of the raw bauxite needed yearly saves 277,500 tons a year of aluminum.
Prevents environmental harm and resource depletion.
Saves 1.17 billion kWh of energy annually. Equivalent to powering 105,000 U.S. homes for a year.
Saves approximately 1.33 million tons of CO₂ emissions annually. Driving 290,000 cars for a year. To absorb that same amount of CO₂, you’d need about 22 million tree seedlings growing for 10 years.
Reusing 5% | Trash Collection Savings:
$15 million in collection and disposal costs saved annually.
If municipalities save money, taxpayers could benefit from reduced waste management fees or stabilized local taxes.
Businesses also save on waste collection and disposal costs.
Additionally, reusing cans reduces landfill space and prevents waste leakage, indirectly reducing environmental cleanup costs.
Recycling aluminum saves 95% of the energy required to produce aluminum from bauxite. Pop Top Lock’s commitment to recycling edcuation, our goal, will approximately save 5% of aluminum gone to landfills:
492 billion kWh of energy per year. Equivalent to powering 2.2 million U.S. homes for a year.
CO2 emissions avoided: 4.3 million tons annually. This is equivalent to removing 930,000 cars from the road annually.
Landfill waste reduced: 277,500 tons/year. Organic waste in landfills decomposes and produces methane (CH4), a greenhouse gas 25 times more potent than CO2 in trapping heat in the atmosphere.
This will avoid about 6.9 million tons of CO2 equivalent emissions (25 x 277,500 tons of methane). Equivalent to planting about 31.5 million trees and letting them grow for 10 years or removing approximately 1.5 million cars from the road for an entire year.

Pop Top Lock is an exciting new all aluminum resealable can technology that powers a sustainable future and drives innovation by saving billions of dollars in aluminum waste, lowering our carbon emissions, and creating a circular economy.
The average number of aluminum cans sold per year is 400+ Billion with a forecast of 627 billion by 2030. Inventor and designer Flo Vinger founder and CEO of VING Vodka created Pop Top Lock to rid single-use plastic and single-use aluminum cans. Pop Top Lock is sustainable, reclosable, reusable, and 100% recyclable and the closure is attached.
Pop Top Lock reclosable can end open like a traditional SOT pop-top can so it can be used on all flat or, carbonated beverages and helps keep carbonation after opening. Pop Top Lock attaches to a standard can body, stackable, and seals with a standard double-edge seam.
There is also a child-resistant, tamper-evident, reclosable design that meets state and federal/FD requirements for Cannabis beverages. Pop Top Lock design can expand into packaging for products like grains, sugar, detergent, flour, and cereal and larger sizes like 10Lt water containers.
Once launched, Pop Top Lock founder/designer/CEO Flo Vinger's grander vision goes beyond sales and dramatically reducing plastic use - she dreams of globally and indefinitely impacting unnecessary waste and carbon emissions through education and recycling initiatives.

California and the EU phaseout
of single-use plastics by 2030
EU PLASTIC BAN:
EU negotiators struck an agreement Monday, March 4, to implement a ban on single-use plastics in cafes and restaurants starting from 2030, as part of new regulations aimed at curbing packaging waste throughout the bloc. The objective is to achieve additional reductions of 10% by 2035 and 15% by 2040.
CALIFORNIA LAW:
On January 1, 2022, beverage manufacturers are required to utilize at least 15% recycled plastic. Beginning January 1, 2023, beverage manufacturers that do not meet the requirements are subject to annual administrative penalties. Penalties will be assessed beginning March 1, 2024 for non-compliance.

FLO VINGER
INVENTOR / DESIGNER / CEO
“Are you ready to get rid of single-use plastic? Excited about a reusable and 100% recyclable, reclosable, and reusable Aluminum RTD? Yup, I am too!
I invented POP TOP LOCK, a sustainable, reclosable, reusable, and 100% recyclable, aluminum (or, steel) can end that eliminates single-use plastic and single-use RTDs. POP TOP LOCK has zero spillage or leakage for concerts, military, airplanes, hospitals, gyms, hiking, traveling, camping, festival refilling stations, and parties. This keeps beverages fresh, and safe from airborne bacteria, viruses, debris, sand, and odors. It also helps safeguard drinks from drink spiking. Each POP TOP LOCK sip is clean, and worry-free.
POP TOP LOCK opens like a traditional can end and the closure is assembled as part of the end, so it cannot be lost or ingested. The closure seals the can opening and can be used multiple times. It uses less Aluminum than a cap, and because it contains zero plastic it’s easily recycled.
17.6 billion pounds of plastic enters the ocean every year. The resulting chemical-laden microplastics can work their way up the food chain and into the fish we eat. Only 3% of plastic is recycled and because plastic degrades quickly, most may only be recycled one time.
Approximately 400 billion cans are produced globally each year and approximately 73% of Aluminum in use today is recycled. Because aluminum can be recycled forever, it is one of the most sustainable elements on earth. Recycling aluminum uses less than 5% of the energy used to make the original product, so it reduces air and water pollution, reduces greenhouse gases, and conserves natural resources. The beverage industry now has the opportunity to be part of the solution and dramatically reduce greenhouse emissions, by switching away from plastic containers and single-use aluminum cans to POP TOP LOCK.
VING Beverages will use POP TOP LOCK and be available for pre-sales for brands and canning suppliers. My aim is to launch POP TOP LOCK in 2024.
The positive global impact POP TOP LOCK will have on our environment and beverage waste will yield benefits beyond my lifetime. My goal is also to create educational initiatives regarding food waste, how to keep beverages safe in clubs and party enjoinments, and the power of recycling."
