Abstract: A container having a label ledge elevated from the base of the container for receiving label is disclosed. When formed in mold, the ledge protects the leading edge of the label from the flow of resin through the cavity walls of the mold. Because the label leading edge is protected, the resin flows over the label and pins the label to the cavity wall of the mold, creating a container with the label formed on the container wall. A container lid with side walls defining a skirting is also disclosed. The lid includes a ledge to facilitate label placement on the skirting.
