For Intercan, one of the world's leading canmaking service organizations, the HandyCoat system offers multiple benefits. One of the most important for Intercan: the significant savings in weight, which makes it possible to change the roller’s elastomeric facing (the HandySleeve) much more quickly and safely.

The number of can manufacturers which have implemented the HandyCoat system is growing, with 50 manufacturing lines across the globe now outfitted with HandyCoat. Some of HandyCoat’s biggest customers include Ball Packaging, in the Netherlands, France, Germany, Greece and Poland; Allthane-RSA in South Africa; Crown Cork in France, UK, Slovania and others; Nampack, in Angola: Caniel Packaging in Israel; and PT-United in Indonesia.

Patented by Hannecard in 2007, the HandyCoat system features two separate components: the HandyBase core, which remains installed on your coater station, and the HandySleeve, coated with Monkal soft polyurethane, which is easily removed and replaced.
