Last verified: November 4, 2026 · https://instica.com/epr/can/new-brunswick

<a id="answer"></a>

In New Brunswick, 1,000 aluminium cans of the Standard (12 oz) size (14 g) carry an estimated packaging fee of CA$14.00 on the 2027 schedule. The range comes from the published rates of Circular Materials New Brunswick (Recycle NB) that fit each part of the pack. Instica estimates it; you confirm the weights, then sign and submit.

## What this page estimates for an aluminium can in New Brunswick

The aluminium can on this page is a drinks can made of aluminium. It has one component, each matched to the published rates of the 2027 schedule of Circular Materials New Brunswick (Recycle NB) for New Brunswick; weight times rate gives a fee per 1,000 packs in CAD. The figures are estimates built on starting weights.

<a id="anatomy"></a>

## What is in an aluminium can

The can is one aluminium component. The ring pull and the printed coating are part of that single weighed unit.

Starting weights, an Instica estimate for a typical pack and not a measured weight: can (aluminium, 14 g).

- **Can**: aluminium, 14 g (Instica starting estimate)

<a id="worked-example"></a>

## Worked example: 1,000 aluminium cans in New Brunswick

One aluminium can of the Standard (12 oz) size weighs 14 g in total. For each component the table gives its weight, the matched published rates, and the fee for 1,000 packs.

<a id="worked-example-table"></a>**Fee for 1,000 aluminium cans in New Brunswick, in CAD**

| Component | Weight each | Matched published rate | Fee per 1,000 packs | Fee per pack |
| --- | ---: | --- | ---: | ---: |
| Can | 14 g | Aluminum Food Containers | CA$14.00 | CA$0.0140 |

<a id="calc-total"></a>New Brunswick: 1,000 aluminium cans of the Standard (12 oz) size are estimated at CA$14.00 in packaging fees.

Added together, the estimate for 1,000 packs is CA$14.00.

Divide by 1,000 for a single pack: about CA$0.0140.

## What the fee tool returns for 1,000 aluminium cans in New Brunswick

Entered into the public fee tool for New Brunswick (2027 schedule, effective January 1, 2027), 1,000 aluminium cans give the figures below. The tool is the same engine that prices a report, so this page and the tool agree.

<a id="tool-lines"></a>**Fee tool lines for 1,000 packs, New Brunswick, in CAD**

## Which published rates were matched in New Brunswick

One published rate was matched to the pack in New Brunswick from the 2027 schedule. Each is quoted from the programme’s own fee table; the page does not change the rate or round it.

#### Can, 14 g: one matched rate

<a id="matched-rates-1"></a>**Rates matched to the can, New Brunswick 2027**

| Category | Published rate | Per kilogram | Fee per 1,000 packs | Fee per pack |

## How size changes the fee for an aluminium can

The weight of an aluminium can depends on its size. The table prices each of the 2 sizes with the same matched rates, so the only thing that changes between rows is the weight.

<a id="sizes-table"></a>**Fee for 1,000 aluminium cans by size in New Brunswick, in CAD**

| Size | Weight each | Fee per 1,000 packs, lowest rates | Fee per 1,000 packs, highest rates | Per pack, lowest | Per pack, highest |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Standard (12 oz) | 14 g | CA$14.00 | CA$14.00 | CA$0.014 | CA$0.014 |
| Tall (16 oz) | 17 g | CA$17.00 | CA$17.00 | CA$0.017 | CA$0.017 |

Each component of the aluminium can priced at every size, at the matched rates for New Brunswick.

<a id="matrix"></a>**Fee per 1,000 packs by component and size, New Brunswick, in CAD**

| Component | Standard (12 oz) | Tall (16 oz) |
| --- | ---: | ---: |
| Can | 14 g: CA$14.00 | 17 g: CA$17.00 |

<a id="options"></a>

## What if the aluminium can used another material?

Suppose the main component of the aluminium can, weighing 14 g, were made of another material. The table prices the same weight in each material class that New Brunswick publishes a rate for, at the lowest published rate in that class.

<a id="options-table"></a>**Same weight, different material, New Brunswick, in CAD per 1,000 packs**

| Material | Lowest published rate | Fee per 1,000 packs at that rate | Highest published rate | Fee per 1,000 packs at that rate |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| paper and board | 68 cents per kilogram | CA$9.52 | 68 cents per kilogram | CA$9.52 |

## What a larger run of aluminium cans costs in New Brunswick

Fees scale with the number of packs, because the schedule charges by mass. The table repeats the worked example for larger runs of the Standard (12 oz) aluminium can in New Brunswick. Nothing else changes between rows: the same weights and the same matched rates apply.

<a id="volume-table"></a>**Fee by run size for the aluminium can in New Brunswick, in CAD**

| Packs | Total weight | Fee at the lowest rates | Fee at the highest rates |
| ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| 100 | 1.4 kg | CA$1.40 | CA$1.40 |
| 500 | 7 kg | CA$7.00 | CA$7.00 |
| 1,000 | 14 kg | CA$14.00 | CA$14.00 |
| 5,000 | 70 kg | CA$70.00 | CA$70.00 |
| 10,000 | 140 kg | CA$140.00 | CA$140.00 |
| 50,000 | 700 kg | CA$700.00 | CA$700.00 |
| 100,000 | 1,400 kg | CA$1,400.00 | CA$1,400.00 |
| 500,000 | 7,000 kg | CA$7,000.00 | CA$7,000.00 |
| 1,000,000 | 14,000 kg | CA$14,000.00 | CA$14,000.00 |

<a id="calc-pack"></a>New Brunswick: a single aluminium can is estimated at CA$0.0140 in packaging fees.

<a id="calc-blended"></a>New Brunswick: across all its components, an aluminium can is priced at CA$1.00 per kilogram of packaging.

Taken as a whole, the pack is priced at CA$1.00 per kilogram of packaging, so a heavier pack costs more in proportion to its weight.

Flat fee bands, registration fees and minimum charges sit outside this per-kilogram table.

## Ways to lower the fee on an aluminium can

Can weight has been reduced steadily by manufacturers, so the weight of your own supplier’s can is a better input than any average.

Aluminium is often priced per kilogram below plastics, because it is recycled at a high rate, but rates differ widely between programmes.

A deposit-return scheme for cans can remove them from the producer fee schedule, so check whether one applies to your drink.

Drinks sellers who fill cans at a contract packer should ask the packer which party reports the can, because that decides who is the producer for it.
