Abstract
A container and storage apparatus with an attached, but functionally separate, labeling portion is provided. The apparatus has a primary chamber containing a predetermined agent separated from the labeling portion. An optional contamination barrier region may increase the separation. A preferred embodiment may be formed by a blow-fill-seal method from thermoplastic, allowing one piece molding of the apparatus. A removable cap allows a dispensing point to be opened into the primary chamber for removal of the agent. Indicia may be formed in or on the labeling portion, which may be smaller, larger, or the same in size and shape as the primary chamber. Inks, adhesives or other substances incidental to the indicia will be less likely to migrate across the apparatus wall and into the primary chamber due to the functional separation provided between the primary chamber and labeling portion.
