Cans fill best, add pizzazz’ to practicality, chill faster, colder to the touch on hot summer days, stack best, are the most recycled and recyclable container, lightweight and volume efficient, maintains freshness, protects content from light, tamper evident, long shelf life environmentally friendly, and rigid and unbreakable.
Cans protect its contents ensuring uniformity of product quality. Your favorite beverage or canned food will taste the same whether bought in Oregon or Florida, Maine or California. Cans are also used to store fruits, vegetables, meats, fish and ready-to-eat meals giving us access to nutritious, even exotic, foods year round. The can industry contributes more than $15 billion to the U.S. economy by providing jobs, paying taxes and purchasing local goods and services. Approximately 131 billion cans are produced each year in the United States. There are more than 170 can manufacturing plants in 36 states. More than 26,000 Americans are directly employed by the can industry. Today there are more than 600 sizes and styles of cans being manufactured. Types of cans include 2-piece aluminum beverage cans, round composite cans, round sanitary open top, aerosol, drawn tins, friction plug style (paint), key opening, screw top, plastic top (cone tops and other configurations), slip cover, oblong cans (easy opening, edible oil type, hinged cover, household machine oil, key opening, spice type, solvent style), and square cans (five gallon and smaller). A metal can is a single-walled container constructed wholly of tinplate, blackplate (including tin-free steel), waste plate, aluminum sheet or impact extrusions, designed for packaging products. It excludes steel pails defined as single-walled shipping containers having capacities of one to 12 gallons inclusive that are cylindrically constructed of steel of 29 gauges and heavier. The recycling of cans outpaced the recycling of all other containers. Steel cans lead the way with a recycling rate of 63 percent followed by aluminum cans with a recycling rate of 52 percent. Recycling pays and is a win win for the environment and a sustainable society. All cans are recyclable and the industry is actively working to increase the recycling rate through partnerships, education outreaches, contests, and free education curriculums. Containers should be empty, clean and dry. Aluminum cans can be rinsed before recycling. For steel cans, place the lids inside the cans and recycle the entire can. Many curbside programs accept empty aerosol cans which should not be pierced or crushed nor be marked with hazardous labels. Full or partially full paint cans of solvent-based paint or cans or other containers bearing hazardous labels should be collected through municipality household hazardous waste collection programs which should be supported. Municipalities are able to abide by applicable regulatory requirements. Paint is emptied from paint cans, dried and either processed for end market consumption or mixed at the material recovery facility with other steel cans collected from curbside or drop-off programs. Often times, the paint is made available for reuse. Cans are collected through curbside programs, drop-off locations, multi-recovery facility, buy-back centers, reverse vending machines, and deposit schemes depending on the each community’s needs, making it easy and convenient to recycle your cans. Once inside the recycling network, a new aluminum can be back on the store shelf in as few as 60 days. In 2005, the aluminum beverage can recycling rate was 52 percent with 51.4 billion cans recycled--enough aluminum cans to conserve the energy equivalent of over 15 million barrels of oil. Recycling one aluminum beverage can save enough electricity to: power a TV for three hours, or a 100-watt light bulb for four hours. Recycling 40 aluminum beverage cans has the energy-saving equivalent of one gallon of gasoline. It takes 95% less energy to recycle aluminum than to start at the beginning mining the bauxite. Recycling that beverage can reduces effluents and emissions by 95 percent creating a more sustainable future. All about cans - http://www.cancentral.com/recfaq.cfm

Anyway, great going, guys...it's turning out the most informative thread in years. Btw, FYI...I want to add here that there is also a word in our Bangla language that almost exactly sounds like 'Can' which means 'Why?'
