A can (200) formed from an unfolded foldable cylinder having at least two folding edges (203). The folding edges (203) are formed and arranged such that the foldable cylinder can be flattened for transport prior to the insertion of a closure member (224). The foldable cylinder is preferably unfolded and tightly sealed with at least one closure member (224) at a first cylinder end region immediately before filling. By connecting the closure member (224) to the foldable cylinder, the cylinder is given a desired shape or cross-section, at least in the region of the closure member (224). After the cylinder is filled, a further closure member (208) is sealed to a second cylinder end region to seal the can and to impart the desired shape to the cylinder in the second end region, too. <IMAGE> |
