Abstract:
1. A container comprising: a container portion fashioned from a container material having a first bending stiffness, defining a receptacle having a volume and a spout, having a generally planar bottom with a width, having a generally planar flange generally parallel to the planar bottom, spaced therefrom, and surrounding the receptacle, having a sidewall extending between the bottom and the flange; a removable cover portion fashioned from a cover material having a second bending stiffness which is less than the first bending stiffness, the cover portion substantially covering the generally planar flange; adhesive between the container portion and the cover portion in the region of the generally planar flange, such that there exists a non-bonded region between the cover portion and the flange portion to facilitate removal of the cover portion; wherein the sidewall includes a front portion disposed below the spout at a location offset from a discharge end of the spout, an upper section of the sidewall front portion extending downwardly with respect to the spout in a direction substantially perpendicular to a plane of the flange, wherein the cover portion and the flange form a bonded region substantially along a perimeter of the receptacle, and the cover portion and the flange additionally form a securing region structured and arranged with an increased peeling resistance relative to a peeling resistance of the bonded region, and wherein the bonded region and the securing region are formed with first and second different sealing die patterns, such that the bonded region has a first sealing pattern and the securing region has a second sealing pattern, wherein the first and second sealing patterns are different.
