In early nineteenth Century, Napoleon, king of France, offered a reward for solving the problem of food preservation when he was fighting. In 1804, Alper (Nicolas Ap-pert), a sugar food master in Paris, developed a method of heating and sealed the preservation of food in glass cans and received bonuses. In 1810, Peter Durand (Peter Durand) of the United Kingdom invented tin tin tin cans. In the same year, he obtained a patent for glass containers and metal containers for canned food in the UK. Since the establishment of the world's first canned food factory in 1820, there has been a history of nearly two hundred years to form canned industrial production.
Later, the rapid development of technology and industry of iron and steel industry and machinery industry has created favorable conditions for the development of canned food containers - metal making industry, which has gradually changed from backward manual production to mechanized production. At the same time, because of the deep research of the canned food industry's own professional theory, in 1864, the French Pasteur (Louse Pastrur) found that the corruption of food was caused by microbes, thus clarifying the principle of the tank and making a scientific canned production process, thus realizing the scale industrial production of canned food. . Scientists' continuous exploration, continuous improvement of packaging materials and containers, and
The improvement of the processing technology, the continuous improvement of the sterilization equipment and technology, the continuous enrichment of the variety and scale of processing, the quality and the reliability of the safety, meet the increasing demand of the consumers, and make the consumers get more quality and cheap canned food. Canned food has been widely recognized by consumers because of its long shelf life, easy to carry and edible, so that the consumption of canned food is increasing and the market is expanding.
Before the founding of new China, the canned food industry in China had established limited private canned enterprises in a few coastal cities, such as the Guangzhou canned canning factory, Xiamen pottery Datong food factory, Shanghai Merlin canned food factory, Tai Kang food factory, and Ningbo canned canned factory (later called the canned factory of Ningbo). Small model, low production, weak foundation, limited variety, only export to Southeast Asia, but there are some famous brand products, such as the broad fragrant bean drum canned fish, the Merlin's Canned anchovies and the canned fish roasted with onion, such as the canned oil bright bamboo shoot can all have a considerable degree of knowledge. "Merlin" has become an international brand name. After the founding of new China, the canned products of the canned factories in East China, especially in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, have been sold to the international market by the "Merlin" brand.
After the founding of new China, the party and the government have attached great importance to the development of the canned food industry, and have taken a series of measures to restore and develop the canned industry, especially in the export sector, to help enterprises open the market portal, to cultivate canned professionals, to support the development of the raw materials base of the tank and to support the enterprises. Technical transformation. According to the situation of resources, new state canned enterprises have been set up in all parts of the country, such as the establishment of n national canned enterprises in Zhejiang province. The canned food industry has been becoming more and more prosperous. At present, China's canned food has entered a new development period. As of the end of December 2010, according to incomplete statistics, China's Canned enterprises have reached more than 3000.
