A plastic container is provided that includes a hollow body portion including a lower supporting base portion; a sidewall portion extending upwardly from the base portion; and a neck portion extending upwardly from the sidewall portion. The neck portion includes a support flange having an upper and lower surface, at least one thread, and a dispensing opening at the top of the neck portion. In embodiments, a closure may be provided to form an assembly. In embodiments, the container may be comprised of PET, the weight of the neck portion from the lower surface of the support flange to a top of the dispensing opening may be 3.0 grams or less, and/or the vertical distance from the top of the dispensing opening to the lower surface of the support flange may be 0.580 inches or less. A preform and method for making a container are also disclosed.

Thermoplastic packaging trays are provided that are filled with a product and wrapped in film, and methods of producing the tray with a peripheral edge region that avoids tearing of the overwrap film. In various embodiments, the tray has a beaded, a flat, or a combined beaded and flat peripheral edge.

A base is provided with a plate-shaped body and two pairs of opposite protrusion edges surrounding the periphery of the plate-shaped body. The two pairs of opposite side plates are hinged to the protrusion edges of the base and are foldable relative to the base. Connecting parts are arranged at the bottom of the side plate, and corresponding base hinging parts are arranged on the protrusion edge of the base, where the connecting parts are hinged to the base hinging parts respectively, thus hinging the side plate to the base. At least one pair of the two pairs of opposite protrusion edges are provided with first closed cavities extending along the length direction of the protrusion edges, and/or the plate-shaped body is provided with second closed cavities, where the second closed cavities protrude from the main surface of the plate-shaped body.
