The cellular material is e.g. of polyethylene, PVC, polyether or silicone foam, with a facing layer of aluminium foil, metal/plastic, ceramic, plastic or leather; the plastic layer can be of an elastomer, polyethylene, polypropylene, EVA or EVOH. A second seal (15) is fitted between the cup and the other end of the tube.
