A dispenser for solvent wetted towelettes in the form of a continuous band that is perforated at intervals along its length to define separate towelettes. The dispenser comprises a container 12, a first closure member 16 having a skirt 22 that is received in an annular groove 24 in the container 12, and a lid 20 that screw engages the container 12. When the lid 20 is screwed on to the container 12 a first set of sealing formations 22 to 26 between the first closure member and the container and a second set of sealing formations 28 to 31 between the lid and first closure member are urged into sealing engagement. A further set of sealing formations 32, 34 adjacent a dispensing opening 18 are also urged into engagement. The dispenser has good sealing properties and is therefore suitable for use with volatile solvents such as acetone. Novel dispensing formations are also disclosed.

A dispenser for dispensing individual moistened towelettes from a length of towelette material having spaced transverse separation lines, the dispenser including a container with an open end for containing the length of towelete material; a barrier member engaged with the container and closing the open end; a dispensing formation in the barrier member for dispensing the towelettes such that on withdrawal of a towelette through the dispensing formation a leading edge portion of the succeeding towelette is drawn through and engaged by the dispensing formation while the first mentioned towelette is separated from the length thereof by the application of forces for withdrawing the towelette and opposing resistive forces provided by the dispensing formation; and a lid member removably attached to the container by complementary formations on the lid member and the container with the improvement being characterized in that the dispensing formation comprises: (a) a first opening formation being dimensioned to frictionally engage a towelette passing therethrough with sufficient force to prevent the towelette falling through the opening; (b) a second opening formation being spaced from the first opening formation and being dimensioned to frictionally engage a towelette with a force in combination with the force provided by the first opening formation sufficient to cause the separation of the towelette from a length thereof when a leading edge of a succeeding towelette is exposed through the second opening formation and dimensioned also normally to hold said leading edge in said exposed position, the opening formations being arranged such that in use the towelette material passes first through the first and then through the second opening formation; and (c) support means holding the second opening formation in said spaced position.
