Abstract
A package of a rectangular tray with a rectangular array of generally cylindrical containers carried therein in a conforming pattern with a stretched-tensioned-elastic plastics material tube encircling the bottom and side walls of the tray and the upper portions of the container array. The side walls of the tray are relatively low, and the end walls are relatively high and provided with hand holds. The tensioned tube causes the bottom wall of the tray to be curvilinear about an axis longitudinally and centrally of said package so that the package will not bend downwardly about a transverse central axis of the package when the package is carried by a person grasping the hand holds in the end walls of the tray.
