<p>The invention is directed to polyester containers that are produced from polyester preforms, the preforms having a thermoplastic over-mold layer on at least a part of the exterior surface of the preform. The preform is made by over-molding the thermoplastic layer onto the preform surface in one or more over-molding operations. In a single over-molding embodiment the preform has a body layer of a first color and the over-molded layer of a second color. The over-mold layer can have a thickness gradient varying in thickness from one end of the preform to adjacent another end of the preform. The over-mold layers can have a thickness and color gradient. A third color will result from the blending of the first color and the differing colors of the over-mold layers where the first color and the differing colors can both be perceived. The color of the contained liquid can also add to the color mixing when the container is substantially transparent.</p> |
