Abstract:

A container formed of a common one-piece thermoplastic substrate. The container has an overlapping seam having an overlap magnitude. At a location that is five times the overlap magnitude away from the overlapping seam, the container wall has a container wall Opacity less than about 50%. At a corresponding position along the overlapping sea, the overlapping seam has a seam Opacity that is less than 200% of the container wall Opacity.
