Abstract
Abstract A container for liquid comprises a liner having longitudinal members compressively secured together by a first carrier film. One water impermeable barrier film overlies the liner. A second carrier film overlies the barrier film to form a shell. Reinforcing members secure to the shell. A third carrier film secures the members to the shell to form the container. Valve introduces the liquid into the container and remove the liquid from the container.
