Abstract
A container for containing a semi-solid product to be dispensed from the container by deformation in the axial direction, the container including a flexible part, a body part, and a cap part, each part having an open end, the cap part being securable to the body part to form a cylindrical container assembly, the side walls of the body part and of the cap part being deformable in the longitudinal direction to reduce the internal volume of the assembly and the assembly having a substantially constant external dimension over the side walls of the body part and the cap part, the body part having threads least towards its open end in its side wall and the cap part having threads towards its open end and in its side wall where the cap part and the body part may be secured to one another by interengagement of the threads, one of the parts having an outlet opening through which the contents of the assembly may be discharged upon deformation of the container assembly.
