8 Pack Slim Can Flex Pods: Small but Mighty
The 8-Pack Slim Can Flex Pods are designed to safely transport eight sleek cans — a very popular configuration for beverages like seltzers, RTD, hemp infused beverages, energy drinks, hard teas, and other slender packaging formats. These Pods are ideal for small direct to consumer shipments, events, seasonal drops, or subscription box fulfillment.
Why they stand out:
-
Perfect for slim cans: Specifically tailored to snugly fit sleek style beverage cans.

Fast packing: Slip in two sets of four cans, then seal and ship — no loose materials or filler needed.
