ABSTRACT:
A multiple container package for consumer direction with filled containers and for return direction with empty containers; the containers, such as cans or bottles, being of the type having a reduced generally cylindrical neck portion with an outward shoulder or bead formation below the neck opening; and including a resilient and deformable plastic carrier sheet positioning the containers in the packaged array by means of bands presenting apertures in the carrier sheet receiving the neck portions and with edges of the bands engaging beneath the shoulder or bead formations, and with tabs projecting laterally outwardly from opposite edges of the carrier sheet adjacent the apertures so that upon association of the neck portions with the band apertures, the tabs and carrier material along these outer edges will assume the curvature of the container neck portions with minimum stretching and tendency toward taking a set during storage and shelf life of the filled containers and with the tabs to deflect sharply downwardly into snug engagement with adjacent surfaces of the neck portions, and leaving sufficient resiliency in the material at least along the outer edges of the apertures enabling adequate support of an array of empty containers associated with the carrier sheet for return thereof to source for sterilizing, re-filling and re-closing of the returned containers.
