Pressure-resistant container

A can adapted to contain at least one of a liquid and a gaseous medium comprising:

• a cylindrical can shell including paper or cardboard material and comprising at least three wound layers, the cylindrical can shell being closed at the bottom with a bottom element and at the top with a cover element;
• wherein the innermost layer of the can shell is a straight-wound barrier layer having a folded seam extending in a longitudinal direction of the can;
• wherein the barrier layer comprises an inner diffusion-tight layer and an outer kraft paper layer;
• wherein at least two further wound layers made of paper or cardboard material are present around the barrier layer of the can shell and are straight-wound;
• wherein adjoining cardboard or paper surfaces of the barrier layer and a next wound layer of the at least two further wound layers are adhered directly to each other;
• wherein the two further wound layers are longitudinally wound and each comprises in the longitudinal direction an overlapping region with itself;
• wherein the overlapping region of the next wound layer adjoining the barrier layer is offset relative to the folded seam of the barrier layer and the overlapping regions of the at least two further wound layers are located at different peripheral regions;
• wherein the cylindrical can shell comprises a cut edge on each of its two ends;
• wherein the cut edges are sealed by a moisture-tight material;
• and
• wherein a first of the cut edges sealed with the moisture-tight material is crimped with an edge region of the bottom element and a second of the cut edges sealed with the moisture-tight material is crimped with an edge region of the cover element.
