British merchant Peter Durand made an impact on food preservation with his patenting of the tin can on 19 January 1810. In 1813, John Hall and Bryan Dorkin opened the first commercial canning factory in England. In 1846, Henry Evans invents a machine that can manufacture tin cans at a rate of sixty per hour. A significant increase over the previous rate of only six per hour.
