Abstract

A container is provided having a can body defining an interior region for containing a product. The can body is of a metal/plastic multi-layer structure construction. The can body includes a side wall (12), a bottom profile comprising an annular rim (18) defining a stand for the can body, an outer transition portion (30) integral with the annular rim, and an inner transition portion (32) connecting the annular rim to a central dome portion (14). In one embodiment a plurality of reinforcing ribs (16) e.g., between 15 and 120, inclusive, are formed in the metal/plastic multi-layer structure in at least one of the outer transition portion and the inner transition portion. The ribs are formed in a spaced apart relation around the perimeter of such portion (s). In another embodiment a can body is made from a metal plastic laminate which is drawn and ironed. In one embodiment, the upper portion is die necked in a plurality of necking steps. In another embodiment, a cone top having threads for receiving a threaded closure is attached to the metal/plastic can body.
