Normally we work with 0.23 millimeters, but this can had to be stronger because of the size. <\/p>\n<p>First, we rolled and soldered the hull. The bottom consisted of two parts because the diameter of the can had to be 1.60 meters. We made the height 1 meter and the circumference 5 meters. This brought the contents of this tin-can to 1,800 litres. Our final task was to produce a suitable lid for the exceptionally large hull. It was a difficult and tough job that took a week in terms of production. The tin can eventually weigh 50 kilos.      <\/p>\n<p>There was a lot of international attention for this candy drum. For example, he was used as a promotion at ISM in Germany, the largest confectionery fair in existence. We still lend the can on request. And to top it all: in 1995 we received a mention in the book by Guinness World Records for the greatest view in the world![\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/www.zaanlandia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/PHOTO-2018-09-17-19-03-05.jpeg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;PHOTO-2018-09-17-19-03-05&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.12.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; max_width=&#8221;600px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><nav aria-label=\"breadcrumbs\" class=\"rank-math-breadcrumb\"><p><span class=\"last\">Home<\/span><\/p><\/nav>Largest can in the worldIn 1994 we decided to see if we could make the world\u2019s largest candy drum.
