Logistics and courier firms routinely secure documents, parcels, and packages with packing tapes before transhipping them. Since these consignments are handled and inspected at several checkpoints across the transhipment route, they’re extremely vulnerable to tampering or pilferage.
Using high quality security tapes such as barrier seals and gummed tapes adds a robust layer of security to shipments, diminishing the chances of meddling and theft. Tripak Ltd has been supplying quality packaging solutions including tamper-evident tapes and printed gummed paper tapes worldwide since 1980.
What Are Security Seals?
The use of security seals can be traced back to the ancient Egyptian civilisation. Pharaohs used official stamps carved out of wood, metal, and stone to seal valuable documents and packages. The recipient could tell immediately if the parcel or document had been tampered with by comparing the seal’s imprint with the original impression.
