Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1310434A2] A tubular container 1 comprises a tubular body 1 having an inner sleeve 4, an outer strip 6 spirally wound about, and bonded to, the sleeve 4, a top cap 8 and a bottom cap 10. The inner sleeve 4 is made from a spirally wound strip of transparent PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) and the outer strip 6 is made from a board material, for example paperboard or cardboard. The inner sleeve 4 is exposed between the turns of the outer strip 6, which means that the container contents, for example a bottle 12, can be seen through a spiral window 14 defined between the turns of the strip 6.
