ABSTRACT:
A container is provided with grip enhancing protrusions of various shapes and sizes, which are raised and integrally formed on the container, thereby increasing the volume. The protrusions are arranged such that a person grasping the container will predominantly contact the protrusions rather than the body of the container, thereby reducing transfer or conduction of heat between the user's hands and the container. The ornamentation on the surface provides a layer of lettering on the surface which extends over the protrusions to enhance the ornamentation. A partially collapsible container adapted to contain beverages or other dispensable fluids includes a collapsible portion for the automatic deployment of either a drinking straw or a pour spout mounted within the container. In its non-collapsed state, the straw or spout is hidden within the container and is strutted between the top and bottom of the container to support the container during shipping and handling.
