Dual container system and method of manufacturing the same

A container system adapted to withstand an impact, the container system comprising:

• a cylindrical first container having a first container body;
• and
• a cylindrical second container, comprising:
• a second container body having a second body height and a second body wall thickness;
• and
• a body recess adapted to releasibly engage the first container body of the first container, the second container body including a plurality of lateral body extensions, each of the lateral body extensions being extended generally perpendicular to the second body height, each of the lateral body extensions further being extended partially into the body recess and being configured to apply at least one of a frictional and compressive force upon the first container body for retention thereof within the body recess, the body recess being formed on the second container body and extending along the second body height, the body recess defining a pair of recess bottom corners each having a recess bottom corner wall thickness which is greater than the second body wall thickness of the second container body, wherein the specified bottom corner wall thickness of the body recess allows the second container to withstand the impact;
• a supporting shelf disposed within the body recess and having upper and lower surfaces, the lower surface of the supporting shelf being spaced above the recess bottom corners, the supporting shelf being configured to support an underside of the first container body;
• wherein:
• the second container body has a finger-indent adjacent a recess top portion for facilitating the detachment of the first container body from the body recess;
• the body recess being configured such that the first container body protrudes outwardly beyond the second container body.

• and
• the supporting shelf being disposed within the body recess in spaced relation to the recess bottom and being configured to support an underside of the first container body;
• wherein:
• the body recess is adapted to releasibly engage the first container body of the first container, the body recess being formed on the second container body and extending along the second body height, the body recess defining at least one recess bottom corner having a recess bottom corner wall thickness which is at least identical to the second body wall thickness of the second container body, wherein the specified bottom corner wall thickness of the body recess allows the second container to withstand the impact.
