Abstract

See full text

A container has a base and a side wall defining a cavity with an opening and having a rim. A lid, integrally formed with the side wall, is hingedly connected adjacent the rim. Two weakened areas extending each along the side wall from the rim towards the base. A tab, integrally formed with the side wall, extends laterally from the side wall in a direction outwards of the side wall and is located between the two weakened areas. When the container is closed, the lid substantially fills the opening and a snap fit coupling secures the lid to the side wall. To open the container a user exerts pressure on the tab to sever the side wall in the region of the weakened areas and release the snap fit coupling. Since the wall is severed the container cannot be reclosed and is tamper evident.
