Resealable soda can offers room for advertising

closing_cap.jpg

Lots of people aren’t thirsty enough to drink a whole can of soda. Ukranian inventor Johan De Broyer figured out a clever way to re-seal those cans, and opens up new possibilities for advertisers at the same time. You pop the top as usual with this design, and then when you want to re-seal it, you turn the pop top tab and it completely closes up the can again, good as new.

The inventor says his invention can create a completely gas-tight and liquid-tight seal. An added incentive toward this idea’s adoption is a space on the resealed top for advertising. That right there would pay for the can itself. Or, the soda (or beer) company could display contest results, letting you know if you’re a winner. It’s about time someone improved those 250 billion drink cans consumed annually.

It'll never sell. The pop companies don't want people to be able to save their pop, they'd rather it be wasted so that folks have to buy more.

I disagree. I prefer pop in a can, but it goes flat in like an hour so I purposely by a bottle. Seals better. Pop companies make more on selling multiple 12 oz cans as opposed to one 20 oz bottle.

jamie, your probably right.

as long as I've been alive (25), pop cans have only done 2 things:
1. get a bigger mouth opening so you can chug it down faster.
&
2. get more expensive.

BUT, I would love it if both Coke & Pepsi started using this invention.
