Abstract
An orientatable closure for a container comprises a body with a screw thread, the thread comprising a first portion having a first thickness and a second portion having a second thickness. The first and second thicknesses are different and the interface between the first and second portions defines a stop such that a co-operating screw thread on a container is not rotatable past the interface, whereby to define a predetermined relative orientation between the closure and container.
