For the prevention of contamination of a vial (2) with traces of medicinal fluids, for example cytostatics and antibiotics, which may be spilt on the outside of the vial (2) while filling, the vial (2) is provided with a tight-fitting protective envelope (6) as a last step in the production process. The envelope (6) comprises a bottom sticker (602) which is attached to a bottom (202) of the vial (2) and a tight-fitting sleeve (601), which is shrunk on a side wall (201) of the vial (2), while partly overlapping the bottom sticker (602) along a circumferential edge of the bottom (202) of the vial (2) As a result of the arrangement of the envelope (6), a possible contamination which remains on the outside of the vial (2) is encapsulated between the vial (2) and the envelope (6). Consequently, a user is no longer exposed to toxic substances, because the user will not touch the vial (2) itself, but will touch the envelope (6).
