SECURITY LABELS

Secure Your Products and Information with Tamper-Evident Adhesive Labels

Security labels look like standard synthetic labels, but leave visible tamper marks thanks to their ultra-strong adhesive. Tamper-evident labels are commonly used to identify sensitive products, ensure authenticity and confidentiality, and even manage inventory within a company. Some labels, such as anti-theft labels, are equipped with a chip and electronic system. These labels are non-transferable and cannot be reapplied once removed.

The purpose of security labels is to prevent theft of the product they are applied to. This can be achieved in several ways: triggering a remote alarm, leaving visible residue on the surface when the label is torn off, or crumbling upon removal to prevent it from being reapplied.

Example of use: Tamper-evident labels are used in the legal field to seal crime scenes with VOID labels. They are also widely used when transporting confidential data to ensure the package has not been opened and no information stolen. They allow for quick detection of tampering.

These labels can be applied to any type of packaging such as envelopes or parcels, and adhere to a variety of surfaces: cardboard, metal, PVC, and more. Their use is wide-ranging—it's up to you to adapt them to your needs.

A Variety of Security Labels

At SBE Direct, we offer a wide selection of label types to suit your needs. You’ll find blank labels, rolls, and customizable formats:

- VOID Labels that reveal tampering. They help secure and identify your assets by showing any removal attempt, as the adhesive leaves the word "VOID" on the surface. This label is very effective in deterring tampering and quickly detecting theft attempts.

- Destructible Labels work similarly to VOID labels. Made of two layers of strong adhesive and a satin-finish surface, they crumble upon removal, revealing tampering. These labels are ideal for stock control and inventory processes.

- Anti-Theft Labels are monitoring labels that detect theft attempts using radio frequency or acousto-magnetic technology. They trigger the security gate alarm remotely in stores.

- Holographic Security Labels that allow instant visual authentication of a product and include numerous security features. These high-tech labels are extremely difficult to replicate. Tamper-proof, they are used to seal and secure sensitive documents or easily copied products. For example, collectibles are often sealed with a hologram to guarantee authenticity. To better understand this technology, see our article on holograms.

We also offer RFID labels. This radio frequency technology is explained in our article: Understanding RFID in 10 Points.
