12 Alcoa is… Since 1995, Alcoa’s  Southern Graphic Systems’ separation technology  has helped Santa smile on Coca-Cola holiday cans throughout North America. Alcoa also is the leading supplier of sheet to the  aluminum can market. Wine bottles closed with  natural corks are subject to “cork taint,” a contamina- tion that affects the taste of the wine. Alcoa Closure Systems International’s new Vino-Lok, a glass stop- per and aluminum overcap system, eliminates the problem. Vino-Lok already is being used on premium wines and has won several awards for innovation.  Pittsburgh Brewing  Company and Alcoa teamed up to present the first beer in an aluminum bottle to North America – reminiscent of their 1962 partnership on the aluminum pull-top can. The bottles keep beer colder longer than glass, weigh less, and won’t break. Alcoa Consumer Products, through its Presto  Products business, sup- plies its thermoformed FRESH-LOCK containers  to ConAgra Foods for  its Healthy Choice line  of thin-sliced deli meats.  Reynolds Food Packaging met retailer Marks & Spencer’s challenge in the U.K. to develop a tamper- resistant package for salads and sandwiches to keep food fresh and safe. Alcoa’s solution won the bid and an  industry award. Alcoa Closure Systems International’s new facility outside of Cairo, Egypt, can produce 800 million closures annually to supply beverage customers in North Africa.
