Abstract
A method for producing a strip consisting of aluminum or an aluminum alloy for packaging purposes, in particular for cans, can lids or can closures, which provides an individualized aluminum strip for packaging purposes, with which decorative or identification elements can be reliably embossed without additional production steps being required, for example at the producer of the packaging means, is achieved in that decorative or other identification elements are embossed into the strip in the last rolling pass of cold rolling and in that the strip thickness is greater in the area of the decorative and identification elements than in the remaining areas of the strip.
