Abstract

A closure assembly configured for use with a container having a neck with a land surface at its uppermost end defining a mouth. The closure assembly includes a cap, a liner, and a fitment with a dispensing surface dimensioned to span the mouth of the container. A plurality of liner tabs center the liner in the cap during assembly, and retain the liner and the fitment within the cap prior to placing the cap on a container. One or more tabs may extend through slots in the fitment.
