Abstract: The present invention relates to a partially collapsible dispensing container (100) extending along a longitudinal axis (110) between a first end and second end, the container comprising an opening (20) for dispensing fluid at said second end, wherein the container (100) comprises a collapsible part (102) and a retaining part (101), wherein the collapsible part and the retaining part are arranged successively along the longitudinal axis (110) and the collapsible part (102) is configured to collapse at least partially inside the retaining part (101) by the application of pressure substantially in a direction of the container longitudinal axis (110). The invention further relates to a system comprising a partially collapsible dispensing container and further comprising a mechanical actuation device (10) configured to apply a pressure on the collapsible part (102) of the container (100) substantially parallel to the container longitudinal axis (110) in order to allow dispensing of the fluid inside.

Abstract: An aseptically processable semi-rigid bottle is disclosed. The bottle is easily squeezed by hand, without the bottle reassuming its initial shape, thus collapsing and ensuring that it contents are readily emptied.

Abstract: Partially collapsible bottles (10) for providing nutritional compositions and other fluids and methods of using the partially collapsible bottles are provided. In a general embodiment, the present disclosure provides a bottle (10) having a rigid wall (20), and a semi-rigid wall (30). The semi-rigid wall (30) is constructed and arranged to conform to an inner side of the rigid wall (20) in a collapsed form. The bottle (10) can be sized to hold any suitable volume such as, for example, from about 100 to 5000 mL.
