Compact Format & Unique Serving

Mini Cans:
High impact in a smaller size.

Mini cans are the perfect solution for concentrated servings, premium mixers, shots, or limited-edition samples. A physical mini can mockup allows you to scale your brand precisely down to the small format without losing details or messages.

  • Compact Scaling

    Test how your logos and key messages perform on a heavily reduced height and surface area, ensuring everything remains harmonious.

  • Real-world Handling

    Get a physical feel for the can't true proportions and its tactile appeal as an exclusive or fun "single-serve" option.

  • Material & Contrast

    Evaluate how metallic varnishes, matte finishes, or raw details interact on a smaller surface where every element counts twice.

Technical Advisory

Specialists in mini formats and micro-typography

When space is tight on a mini can, technical challenges regarding readability quickly arise. EAN codes, ingredient lists, and mandatory deposit marks take up the same amount of space as on a large can, leaving less room for the actual branding. A physical prototype ensures that the balance between legal compliance and aesthetics is spot on.

At Exemplar, we tailor can mockups to all specialty formats on the market. We guide and advise you on the best graphic trade-offs for your mini can mockup – whether it involves the classic 15 cl or 20 cl formats – so you avoid unpleasant surprises when production starts.

Did you know? The mini can is gaining major traction in the premium mixer segment (e.g., tonic and ginger ale) because it ensures the carbonation is always completely fresh for each serving with zero waste.
