Abstract
A container for surgical instruments or other articles has a body. One end of the body is closed by a cap. A sealing band seals the cap and the body together in a sterile manner. A welded sealing area is formed by welding together overlying portions of the band whereby a visible blemished area is produced when the seal at the welded area is broken.
