A VOID adhesive seal is a tape or label made of a very strong adhesive that leaves an indelible "VOID OPENED" message when removed. Thus, it can be used to permanently seal packages or entrances and to report the opening, authorized or not, of the latter. This seal can be stuck on any type of material (wood, plastic, metal, cardboard, paper...)

There are 3 types of VOID adhesive:

- Non-transfer adhesive: the sticker leaves no residue on the secured surface but the break-in is visible on the adhesive side. It is ideal for sensitive, valuable objects and products as they will be intact if the seal is affixed to them.

- Partial Transfer Adhesive: The sticker leaves a partial residue on the surface revealing the opening message "VOID OPENED", proving the opening.

- Full transfer adhesive: The sticker fully reveals the tampering message on the surface.
