Abstract
A multi-sided spiraled plastic container for liquid, flowable, and squeezable products may be suitable for use with food or beverage products packaged by traditional hot-fill processes. The container includes an open top through which the container is adapted to be filled, and a body portion having a shoulder section, which extends downwardly from the open top towards a closed base portion. The body portion has a plurality of vacuum panel pairs which are disposed in a spiral fashion about the body portion and configured for contributing to a superior top load strength of the container.
