Abstract

The present invention concerns a container closure comprising a crown and an annular skirt (14) depending from the crown, wherein the skirt has a circumferential line of weakness (15) defining a tamper-evident band (16) at the open end thereof. The tamper-evident band has one or more solid-form radially inwardly projecting protrusions (17) for inter-engagement with one or more corresponding protrusions provided to a container neck. The skirt (14) is provided with a lip (19) at or adjacent the line of weakness, the lip (19) depending from the skirt (14) and being positioned radially inwardly of the line of weakness (15), the lip (19) extending from the crown side of the line of weakness (15) away from the skirt (14) to an axial extent corresponding at least with an edge of the tamper-evident band (16), the lip (19) being configured not to project radially inwardly of the skirt (14).
