According to the invention, an electrostatic charging of the plastic container or/and the inner filled material with a risk of explosion may be avoided, whereby a permanent electrical connection between the inner packed material and the base on which the plastic container (10) is mounted is provided which guarantees a secure discharge of electrostatic charging of the container body or the packed material to the base.
