Abstract: A polymeric closure includes a first closure portion including a top wall portion and an annular skirt portion. The top wall portion includes polymeric plug seals extending downwardly therefrom. The polymeric plug seals extend around a circumference of the closure with a respective space located between each of the adjacent plug seals. The skirt portion depends from the top wall portion. The annular skirt portion has an interior surface. The interior surface of the skirt portion includes an internal thread formation. The plug seals are spaced from the interior surface of the skirt portion and assist in sealing with a container. The plug seals provide a seal with a finish of the container across at least 40 to about 90 percent of the finish.

Abstract: A container includes a sidewall, a bottom and a rim portion, which are integrally formed or connected with each other. The rim portion includes an inner wall and an outer wall. The inner and outer walls are spaced from each other and connected to each other by an extension. An interior opening is defined by the inner wall of the rim portion, the sidewall and the bottom. An exterior opening is formed between the inner and outer walls and the extension. The exterior opening is sized and configured to receive a sidewall of a lid when the container is used with the lid to form a package. The outer wall has a tamper-evident foldable section with first and second ends. The first end is configured to fold back toward and secure to a second end so as to expose the sidewall of the lid.

Abstract: A closure includes first and second closure portions. The first closure portion includes a top wall portion and annular skirt portion. An interior surface of the skirt portion includes an internal thread formation and further includes recessed portions. The second closure portion includes a tamper-evident band being detachably connected to the annular skirt portion by a frangible connection. The band includes a first portion and a second portion connected via a bending area. The second portion includes a tab section, first extension sections and second extension sections. The recessed portions are sized and shaped to receive a respective one of the first extension sections when the closure is in a closed position.

Abstract: A closure includes first and second closure portions. The first closure portion includes a top wall portion and an annular skirt portion that includes an internal thread formation. The second closure portion includes a tamper-evident band being at least partially detachably connected to the skirt portion by a frangible connection. The tamper-evident band includes first and second portions connected via a bending area. The second portion extends generally upwardly from the bending area towards the top portion and is located inwardly from the first portion of the band. The second portion of the band includes a tab portion and an extension portion. The extension portion is located further from the bending area than the tab portion. The average thickness of the tab portion is greater than the average thickness of the extension portion. The extension portion extends continuously around an entire inner circumference of the closure.

Abstract: A flip-top closure includes first and second closure polymeric portions. The first closure portion includes a top wall portion, a skirt portion and a tamper-evident feature being detachably connected to the annular skirt. The second closure portion includes a top wall portion, a skirt portion with an internal thread formation and an upwardly-extending locking tab, and a tamper-evident band. The first and second closure portions are attached via a hinge. The closure moves to an open position, resulting in the tamper-evident feature being detached from the remainder of the first closure portion and remaining adjacent to the skirt portion of the second closure portion in which the upwardly-extending locking tab assists in preventing or inhibiting the tamper-evident feature from falling off of the closure after the closure has been opened.
