Crown Aerosols & Speciality Packaging Europe marketing director Véronique Curulla said: "Once again metal has presented itself as the go-to material for a world-leading brand.
"We are incredibly proud of what we have achieved with Nestle – the new tins represent a truly collaborative effort between Crown’s European teams and Nestlé’s own creative group."
The new package features a thin, flexible aluminium foil lid, which is heat-sealed to a rigid steel ring.
It also incorporates an AptarGroup-designed, resealable, hinged-lid plastic cap to preserve contents using ‘Click to Close’ technology.
