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.
