Vincentka Brings Heritage Mineral Water Into the Can with CANPACK

KRAKÓW, POLAND (18 September 2026) – Vincentka, one of the Czech Republic’s most recognizable natural mineral water brands, is a standout example of where mineral water packaging is headed. Working with CANPACK, Vincentka brought its heritage into a modern, fully recyclable Slim aluminum can – a format that is shaping this emerging category.

Produced at CANPACK’s plant in Brzesko, the 250 ml Slim can features a Superwhite effect and Matt varnish finish, giving Vincentka a premium, distinctive presence that stays true to the brand’s natural positioning in a category that’s only just beginning to show its potential.

A HERITAGE BRAND, A MODERN FORMAT

Vincentka’s roots run deep: a brand built on natural origin and long-standing trust. Its move into aluminum cans, enabled by CANPACK, offers a new way to carry that legacy forward – proof that this still-emerging category can hold real heritage, not just convenience.

The Slim can format itself reinforces this positioning: sleek, premium and suited to how mineral water is enjoyed today, from natural refreshment on the go to moments spent outdoors, without losing the sense of authenticity that defines the brand.

WHERE TRADITION MEETS INNOVATION

The way mineral water is experienced is being rethought, and Vincentka’s role in that shift says as much about the category’s potential as it does about the brand itself. Aluminum offers real, tangible benefits: it shields the water inside from light and oxygen exposure, helping preserve its natural qualities, while the Slim 250 ml format delivers a genuinely better on-the-go experience – one that especially appeals to younger consumers. 

Aluminum cans are also a canvas for strong, premium visual identity. CANPACK’s Superwhite effect gives Vincentka a bold, crisp finish that highlights the water’s natural character, while the Matt varnish adds a smooth, velvety touch that conveys refinement and an authentic, elegant feel.

For Vincentka, stepping into this space is a statement: heritage and modernity aren’t at odds, they can be combined in a single format.

A GLOBAL STANDARD, A LOCAL STORY

This is what a global partner makes possible: world-class facilities where quality assurance is built into every step. From print precision to the experience it creates, every stage was built to reflect the refined, natural character that defines the Vincentka brand.

“Mineral water in can is still a young category, and Vincentka shows exactly what it’s capable of,” said Filip Dostal, Sales Manager at CANPACK. “Our team at Brzesko brought the precision and finishing expertise that gave a heritage brand the confidence to step into something genuinely new, without losing the tradition that defines it.”

“Entering the mineral water in can category was always about meeting our consumers where they are today, without changing who we are” said Jan Šumšal, Chairman of the Board of Directors at Vincentka. “Together with CANPACK, we shaped a format that feels modern and considered, right down to the finish – while staying true to the natural origin our brand has always stood for.”

Vincentka’s presence in aluminum cans shows exactly what this emerging category can achieve: heritage and innovation, captured in a single format. With the right partner, packaging becomes part of the story.
