ABSTRACT:
A container is provided with an inner container body and an outer sleeve. The inner container body (which is preferably, but not necessarily, a one-piece structure) includes upper and lower essentially rigid portions and a flexible liner portion therebetween. In one embodiment, the sleeve is positioned between opposing annular upper and lower ledge surfaces defined by the upper and lower rigid portions, respectively, so as to positionally separate the same. Most preferably, the sleeve is sized so that its upper and lower edges are respectively seated against the upper and lower ledge surfaces so as to exert a tension force upon the flexible liner. This tension force, in turn, causes the upper and lower portions of the inner container body to be compressively coupled to upper and lower edges of the sleeve (e.g., by biasing the upper and lower ledge surfaces into seated contact with the sleeve's upper and lower edges, respectively). The sleeve may, however, simply be affixed to the rigid upper and lower portions, e.g., via an adhesive and/or heat-seal bond.
