Abstract

A container is described which has an upper portion including a finish (508), said finish (508) comprising an upper inwardly projecting lip (501) extending about the longitudinal axis (A) and defining an inner edge (506) having a first inner radial distance (X1) from the longitudinal axis (A); and a lower inwardly projecting lip (502) interconnected with said upper lip (501), said lower lip extending about the longitudinal axis (A) and defining a second inner radial distance (X2) from the longitudinal axis (A), said second inner radial distance (X2) being smaller than said first inner radial distance; wherein said lower lip is spaced apart from said upper lip in a direction substantially parallel to said longitudinal axis. The upper lip includes an outwardly extending circumferential ridge (507) between the inner edge (506) and the lower lip (502), and the lower lip has a portion of decreasing radial distance leading down away from the circumferential ridge leading to a portion of increasing diameter thereby producing an "S" shaped cross-section. When a foil cap is thermosealed onto the container the "S" shaped portion collapses forming a strengthened rim that helps support the cap.
