  • step b) there is a first reshaping of the first body end 21 into the first end region 12 and the second body end into the second end region 23.
  • mutually opposite regions of the fluid container wall 6 are connected in each part of the first end region 12 and the second end region 23 and the respective formation of a connection region 16.
  • the first reshaping comprises pressing together the opposing container walls 6 in the end regions 12, 23, with the first centroids 14 now emerging from the central region 9 or the body 20 increasing towards the end 4, 5 of the fluid container 1 Longitudinal axis 1 1 along the radial direction 15 are shifted outwards.
  • the compression takes place in at least one part of the respective end region 12, 23 to such an extent that regions of the fluid container wall 6 opposite one another are brought to bear against one another.
  • a connection area 16 is then produced by connecting the container walls 6.
  • step c) at least part of the connecting area 16 or the areas connected to one another in step c) is reshaped a second time.
  • the second reshaping does not bring about any further reduction in the first volume 7.
  • the second reshaping only reshapes the connecting areas 16.
  • the connecting regions 16 are given a curve-shaped profile along the width 17 (that is to say along the first cross-sectional area 13).
  • the fluid container 1 is cut to length in both end regions 12, 23, so that a container length 34 of the fluid container 1 is set.
  • the container length 34 is set to the greatest height 33 of the beverage container 2 provided for the fluid container 1.
  • an opening 19 is arranged or produced in the region of the first end region 12 as part of the method.
