Abstract

A method of removing a cap rim (2) from a container rim (50) wherein a first part (3) of the cap rim lies inside the wall (4) of the container (1) to which the container rim is attached, a second part of the cap rim is between the wall of the container and the container rim and a third part of the cap rim extends between the first and second parts of the cap rim around around the outside of the container rim by forming at least one cut (5) in the first part of the cap rim; folding the first part of the cap rim to a position outside the interior of the container; forming at least one break in the cap rim, said break being in the second and third parts of the cap rim and being aligned with the at least one cut; and pulling the cap rim from the container rim, the direction of pulling having at least a component radial of the container. An apparatus for performing the method is also disclosed.
