About BALL Corp

Ball Corporation is a United States-based industrial company listed on the NYSE under the ticker BALL and headquartered in Westminster, Colorado. For French-speaking investors in France, Belgium, and Switzerland, Ball is best viewed as a global packaging franchise with a strong defensive profile and exposure to secular demand for recyclable aluminum solutions. Founded in 1880, the company has undergone a long corporate evolution, but its strategic identity today is much more focused: Ball now describes itself as the global leader in sustainable aluminum packaging solutions, serving customers in beverage, personal care, and household products. ([investors.ball.com](https://investors.ball.com/company-information)) Operationally, Ball’s business is organized around beverage packaging platforms across North and Central America, EMEA, and South America. This geographic mix gives the company broad exposure to consumer demand across developed and emerging markets, while also tying it closely to multinational brand owners and large bottlers. Ball reports more than 16,000 employees and more than 65 manufacturing plants and facilities worldwide, underscoring the scale and capital intensity of the business. That manufacturing footprint, together with long-standing customer relationships, creates meaningful barriers to entry in a market where reliability, cost efficiency, and sustainability credentials matter. ([investors.ball.com](https://investors.ball.com/company-information)) Ball’s core products are aluminum beverage cans and related packaging solutions, plus containers used in personal care and home care applications. The company’s competitive position is built on scale, production efficiency, customer integration, and the structural tailwind of aluminum’s recyclability. Management also emphasizes innovation, sustainability, and disciplined execution through the Ball Business System. In practice, this places Ball in the upper tier of global packaging companies, particularly in beverage cans, where it is a major supplier to multinational consumer brands.

Ball completed the divestiture of its aerospace business to BAE Systems in February 2024, sharpening the company’s focus on packaging. In February 2025, it acquired Florida Can Manufacturing to strengthen its North American supply network. In March 2025, Ball entered into a strategic partnership around its aluminum cups business, which led to deconsolidation of that operation. Most recently, first-quarter 2026 results showed a 0.8% increase in global aluminum packaging shipments, and management reiterated expectations for more than 10% comparable EPS growth and free cash flow above $900 million in 2026.
