Abstract

A closure (2) for a container body (4) comprises a base (6) with a hinged lid (8). The base has a depending skirt (10) and a flange (12). The horizontal flange (12) of the base is sealed to a rim of the container body by means of an induction heat sealed foil (14). The side wall of the container body is stepped inwardly and the skirt is deep and thin-walled and is provided with at least one weakened region to define a fracture point. Any leverage of the skirt will at least leave a mark and is liable to tear the skirt at the fracture point. Preferably the weakened regions are reduced wall section ribs are moulded into an interior face of the skirt at vulnerable areas such as the corners and centres of the side walls to provide additional tamper evidence.
