ABSTRACT:
A process for filling a container with a liquid includes providing a plastic container comprising a spout, a base, and a sidewall. The container is filled with a liquid and the spout is sealed with a closure. An internal vacuum or depression is formed within the container, resulting in visible deformation of the container. Heat is applied to the container to bring about internal pressurization of the container to at least compensate for the depression or vacuum.
