Claim:
A container assembly, comprising: a container having at least one panel and at least one seal sealing the at least one panel to define a cavity; a fitment having a base flange welded to the at least one panel of the container, comprising a body having a first end and a second end, the second end extending away from the container, wherein the fitment provides fluid communication with the cavity; a cap assembly releasably attachable to the second end of the fitment, the cap assembly comprising: a base having an upper surface, a lower surface and an opening extending therethrough, the upper surface including a shoulder to define a valley therewithin, the lower surface including an outer retaining rim and an inner retaining rim substantially concentrically positioned relative to the outer retaining rim, the outer retaining rim and the inner retaining rim defining a channel structurally configured to retain the second end of the fitment through an interference fit therebetween, the opening including a lower annular rim extending from the lower surface of the base, the lower annular rim defines an elongated passage below the lower surface of the base spaced apart from the inner retaining rim and substantially concentric thereto, and structurally configured to receive and retain a probe; a cover associated with the base and positioned within the valley of the shoulder and over the opening to, in turn, cover the opening of the base thereby precluding ingress into the elongated passage of the lower annular rim; and a frangible cover integrally molded with the cap extending across the lower annular rim.
