About Promocan

Promocan specialises in re-purposing real tin cans.

Open-top tin cans arranged on a production line, showing standard food-can formats prior to repurposing.

We design and supply functional, sustainable products made from brand new, UK-manufactured tin cans. These are genuine food cans — the same formats used in industrial canning — re-purposed for professional, commercial and creative use.

Based in the West Sussex countryside, Promocan sits at the intersection of manufacturing and application. We work closely with established UK can makers and transform real cans into practical products that are ready to be used, handled, labelled, displayed or deployed in demanding environments.

Our product ranges include tinplate cutlery holders, drinkware, plant pots, money tins, display tins and empty sealed cans, supplied in trade packs and formats suited to real-world use rather than novelty or decoration.

Promocan products are used across clearly defined sectors, including:

In screen and stage environments, our cans are used as props and set dressing where authenticity, weight, consistency and availability matter. In hospitality and commercial settings, they are chosen for durability, uniformity and practicality. In all cases, the starting point is the same: a real tin can, re-purposed intelligently.

Sustainability is inherent in our approach. The tin cans we use are made in the UK, contain recycled steel, and are infinitely recyclable after use. Wherever possible, labels, fittings and packaging are also sourced from UK suppliers.

Alongside our own product ranges, we also support professional users who require open-top cans and components for specialist or small-volume applications. This reflects long-standing relationships with UK can manufacturers and is undertaken selectively to ensure quality, traceability and appropriate use.

Promocan is a deliberately focused business. We value long-term relationships, practical problem-solving and supplying products that are fit for purpose — quietly, reliably and without unnecessary complication.
