Two individuals in England are given credit for applying and improving Appert’s invention, Bryan Donkin and Peter Durand. Bryan Donkin, an associate of John Hall’s at his Dartford Iron Works, realized in 1811 that iron containers could be used instead of the fragile glass, and in 1812 the factory began to produce canned food such as meat.

Despite its fragility and high production costs, glass had an advantage over cans: glass is chemically inert. In a metal can, iron, tin, and even lead may interact with the water of the preserved food due to chemical or galvanic reactions (although that problem had been solved when iron was replaced by lighter material).

Paper and cardboard cartons emerged at the end of the nineteenth century as material for wrapping and packaging food. For a long time the price of materials for food packaging: tinplate, glass, and, to a lesser extent, paper, remained high and was often more costly than the food itself.
