Abstract
A method for the fabrication of a container from a substantially tubular preform provided with an open end communicating with a cavity comprises the steps of positioning the preform within a mold that substantially defines a container such that the open end of the preform protrudes from the mold; providing an injector in sealed fluid communication with the open end of the preform which injects a quantity of liquid into the cavity of the preform, increasing the pressure within the cavity and inducing the preform to deform into the shape of the mold and form a container; and then reducing the pressure within the container to atmospheric pressure while maintaining sealed fluid communication between the injector and the open end. Using the method for fabricating and filling a beverage container.
