Abstract

The present invention relates to a container cap with tissue used for drinking container. According to one preferred embodiment (FIG. 2), the container is a bottle (10) and the bottle cap with tissue of the invention comprises a bottle cap (11) a pre-compressed coined tissue (12), and a shrink wrap (13). The outer diameter of the tissue (12) is smaller than that of the cap (11), thereby the tissue can nicely sit on the bottle cap (11). After the bottle (10) is closed by the cap with tissue, both the tissue and the bottle cap are covered by the shrink wrap (13) that is heated to cause shrinkage and tight fit to the shoulder of the bottle. As a result, it is possible to protect the tissue from dirt and contamination and keep it clean and hygienic for end consumers.
