Abstract: A closure system including a transparent inner cap, an opaque outer cover, and a liner. The transparent inner cap includes a top wall, an open bottom, a sidewall, and an inner cap attaching mechanism disposed on an exterior surface of the sidewall. The opaque outer cover includes an open top, an open bottom, a sidewall, and an outer cover attaching mechanism disposed on an interior surface of the sidewall. The opaque outer cover is dimensioned and configured to be assembled with the transparent inner cap via the corresponding attaching mechanisms to form an assembled two-piece closure with the opaque outer cover substantially covering the sidewall of the transparent inner cap. The liner is operable to be inserted into the two-piece closure such that the liner is visible through the open top of the opaque outer cover and the top wall of the transparent inner cap.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system and method of recycling of a pharmaceutical container system, which can include the container and closure for the container. The disclosure teaches a self-contained recycling system wherein the pharmaceutical containers that are made for consumer use are returned for processing and remanufacturing as new unused pharmaceutical containers to facilitate the ease of recycling of the same and the future use as unused pharmaceutical containers and viable consumer products.

Abstract: A closure system includes a container and a closure. The container including a rim extending perpendicular to the side wall, the rim including a locking lug extending from an upper surface of the rim and a break disposed in the rim adjacent to the locking tab, the break operable to form a deflectable locking portion of the rim. The closure including a side wall, a flange extending perpendicular to the side wall, and a locking lug disposed within the flange for engaging the corresponding locking lug of the container. The flange may include a gap portion disposed adjacent to the locking lug for allowing a user to deflect the deflectable locking portion of the container through the gap portion in the flange to disengage the locking lug of the container from the locking lug of the closure.
