Abstract: The invention relates to a package of a plastics material and consisting of a container and a lid adapted to be engaged with each other by snap engagement, there being provided complementary engagement faces which engage each other for establishing said snap engagement. An annular resilient sealing member is arranged between the engagement portion (40) and the bottom wall (19). The invention is characterized in that an axial compression of the sealing member (23) is provided during application of the lid (10), said compression being partially relieved when said engagement faces (29, 42) engage each other.

Abstract: A circular container for storage and transport of paint and solvents is made of a resiliently deformable plastic material and includes a side wall which defines first and second portions above an external flange, the first and second portions being separated by a folding and bending arrangement. The second wall portion is bendable outwardly and downwardly relative to the first wall portion. A bag of propylene or PET is positioned in the container and an upper portion thereof is folded around the second wall portion and is held in place by ring tension generated when the free edge of the second wall portion is bent to abut an upper edge of the flange.
