Abstract
A plastics container and closure assembly in which the closure has a cap part, a tear away band, an anchor band, a hinge connecting the cap part to the anchor band and a bung to seat within the mouth of the container. The bung is deeper on one side than on the other whereby when viewed from one side the bottom of the bung is formed by an oblique line extending upwardly from the deepest part of the bung to the shallowest part and wherein the shallowest part of the bung is adjacent to a thumb tab by which the cap may be manipulated and the deepest part of the bung is adjacent to the hinge. The anchor band has an auxiliary band retaining projection positioned when in use below the auxiliary bead on the container and a main band-retaining projection when in use below the main band-retaining bead the arrangement being such that when the tear-off strip is removed the cap part remains connected to the anchor band by a hinge and the anchor band is firmly held in position.
