Abstract: We initiate the study of multiplicative structures on cones and show that cones of Floer continuation maps fit naturally in this framework. We apply this to give a new description of the multiplicative structure on Rabinowitz Floer homology and cohomology, and to give a new proof of the Poincar'e duality theorem which relates the two. The underlying algebraic structure admits two incarnations, both new, which we study and compare: on the one hand the structure of $A_2^{+}$-algebra on the space $mathcalA$ of Floer chains, and on the other hand the structure of $A_2$-algebra involving $mathcalA$, its dual $mathcal{A}^{v}ee$ and a continuation map from $mathcal{A}^{v}ee$ to $mathcalA$.
