ABSTRACT:
A recloseable container is preferably produced by thermoforming. The container has an elongated shape with a dispensing nozzle at one end. Above the dispensing nozzle is a tab. When this tab is broken off the container, the nozzle is opened. Adjacent the nozzle is a hinged closure. The hinged closure has a shape complementary to that of the nozzle and can be rotated on the hinge to overlap and close the container nozzle. There is an arrangement to lock the closure in a nozzle closing orientation and an arrangement to provide an air and liquid seal to the nozzle.
