Abstract
A can sealing organization including an elongate central web with a downwardly depending skirt formed about a matrix of cylindrical beverage containers. The beverage containers each include an individual cap member heat sealed in a surrounding relationship to each upper end of each can, wherein each cap is integrally formed to the central web. Additionally, each cap member includes an antiseptically saturated sponge member mounted between an upper surface of the can and the cap captured therebetween, wherein each sponge member may further be formed of a doughnut-like configuration defining a central cylindrical opening containing a rupturable anti-bacterial fluid contained therewithin.
