Container and lid combination with tamper evident information

A container assembly having a container, and a lid for mounting on the container, with a tamper evident mechanism located for operation between the container and the lid,

• the lid having a lid skirt,
• the tamper evident mechanism including at least one flange on either the container or lid and at least one corresponding projection on either the lid or container, respectively,
• the container having a circumferential externally projecting barrier flange provided around a side wall of the container near to an upper end thereof and below the tamper evident mechanism, the barrier flange being located such that the lid skirt can extend downwardly thereto to prevent access to the tamper evident mechanism,
• the flange and projection being substantially covered by the lid and being arranged such that when the lid is rotation mounted on the container, the flange moves relatively past the projection to a position such that removal of the lid by counter rotation may only occur by deforming or breaking either one or both of the flange and the projection,
• the lid and barrier flange shielding the tamper evident mechanism to thereby restrict access to the tamper evident mechanism when the lid is mounted to the container, and
• the lid substantially covering the flange and the projection during said lid counter rotation so that the flange and the projection remain inaccessible to tampering.
