Example

[0014]Referring to FIG. 1A, a container 100 according to the present invention comprises a base 10 and lid 20 which are releasably sealed together with a sealing mechanism 30 around an outer periphery to form a sealed space 40 for storing a consumable product, for example a tobacco product such as snus.

[0015]As shown in FIG. 1B, the lid 20 comprises an outer skirt 21 and a first abutment projection 22. The outer skirt 21 runs around a peripheral edge of the lid 20, extending approximately perpendicular to an inner closure surface 23 and configured to fit over the base 10.

[0016]In this example, the first abutment projection 22 extends from an inner closure surface 23 of the lid, approximately parallel with the outer skirt 21 but extending a lesser distance. The first abutment projection 22 runs circumferentially around the inner surface of the lid 20, a constant distance towards the centre of the lid from the outer skirt 21.

[0017]The base comprises a base surface 12, identified in FI...

Abstract

A container for a tobacco product having a base and a lid, the lid comprises an outer skirt and a first abutment projection. The abutment projection runs circumferentially on an inside surface of the lid, adjacent to the outer skirt. The base comprises a side wall configured to contact an outward-facing surface of the first abutment projection during closure of the lid, such that the side wall is outwardly deflected and contacts an inside surface of the outer skirt of the lid, sealing the container when the lid is closed.
