Disclosed is a thermoplastic container formed from a flattened thermoplastic sleeve that is fabricated at a first manufacturing location. These flattened sleeves are conveniently transported to a second manufacturing location where they can be compactly stored. As containers are needed, the ends of the sleeve are stiffened by forming a flange or bead, thereby providing a tubular central section with a stable cross-sectional shape suitable for the application of conventional end closures. |
