Abstract

The invention provides a container (1) having a neck (2) extending from a surface(7) of the container, a cap (12) and a date indicator (3), the date indicator comprising a first portion (4) rotatable on the neck of the container and a second portion (6) rotatable relative the first portion, wherein one of the first and second portions has dates marked on it and the other of said portions has an indicator (5) on it, which indicator can be aligned with a date by rotating the first portion relative to the second portion, wherein the container (1) has a screw cap (2) and the first portion of the date indicator is a frangible tamperproof seal ring (4) of the cap (2). The invention provides a relatively cheap and convenient means of indicating when the contents of a container are to be used by, once the container has been opened.
