ABSTRACT:
A multiple-container package that includes a plastic tray having a base with an integral peripheral wall, a plurality of pockets in the base and flange portions extending along opposite sides of the peripheral wall. A plurality of filled and closed containers, such as beverage containers, each has a lower end received in one of the tray pockets in an upper end spaced above the tray. A canopy in the form of a thin plastic sheet engages the upper ends of the containers, and is stretched taut over the containers. The side edges of the canopy sheet are secured to the undersides of the flange portions of the tray in such a way that residual stresses in the canopy sheet, which hold the containers in the tray pockets, exert shear stresses on the securement bond between the sheet and the tray flanges. A handle in the form of a thin flexible plastic strip is secured at opposite ends to lateral ends the tray and extends over the canopy for manually carrying the tray and package in horizontal orientation.
