ABSTRACT:
A hollow, cylindrical container is disclosed that is formed from a generally flat sheet of foamed plastic material. The sheet may be formed into the container and may be unformed back to its sheet form. The generally flat sheet has sector elements along each side that mate to form the top and bottom on the container while providing a hollow interior for contained materials. The container is adapted to contain and protect fluids, liquids or solids that are enclosed in their own packages and the container may be adapted with a tap or spigot for dispensing the contained materials. The container is easily stacked with like containers when in the generally flat sheet form so that the container may be used to transport materials when in its hollow, cylindrical form and may be returned to the shipping origin in its generally flat sheet form.
