The container of this invention has an increased strength in compression. When filled and with a closure the containers can withstand greater compressive force without a resulting deflection. This permits the use of a lighter weight and less costly shipper carton. The containers have a substantially rigid base, and except for rigidifying recesses, a substantially planar base. Further, the sidewalls of the container are substantially devoid of recesses and projections, and particularly, in the region of the base of the container. In addition, the sidewalls have a slight outward taper from an area at an upper part of the sidewall to the base of the container.
