Cans, Tubs, or Sachets: Which SURGE Format Is Right for You?

Same SURGE, three different formats. The right one comes down to how you actually want to drink your protein, not which one is "better." Here's the real difference between them.

The Cans: Grab, Crack, Drink

The RTD cans, sold individually, in 4-packs, or by the case of 12, are the zero-effort option. No scoop, no mixing, no water bottle required, just a full 25g serving of complete plant protein, ready the second you crack it open, and it's sparkling too. This is the format for the car, the office fridge, or anywhere you want protein without a single extra step.

The Tubs: Control Your Own Ratio

The 454g (1lb) tub is for anyone who wants to set their own ratio. Prefer it a little lighter with more water, or more concentrated after a workout? A tub lets you decide that scoop by scoop, and it tends to work out to the lowest cost per serving if you're going through SURGE regularly. It's also the best option for at-home use, amazing on its own or blended straight into your favourite smoothie.

The Sachets: Pre-Portioned and Portable

Each sachet is a pre-measured single serving of our powder (two sachets make a full 25g serving), built for anyone who wants a consistent mix without measuring anything, and who wants it easy to carry. This is also the format available in our Costco multipack of 20. They're also perfect for travelling, tossing in your bag on the go, or stashing anywhere from a backpack to a diaper bag (check out our article on the best places to stash a SURGE sachet for more ideas).

Which One's Right for You?

If you want zero prep, grab a can. If you want to control your own mix and stretch your dollar, go with a tub. If you want something pre-portioned and easy to toss in a bag, sachets are built for exactly that. None of them are a compromise, they're the same SURGE in three different formats for three different routines.
