Plastic security seals offer a simple, affordable, and highly effective solution for protecting shipments from unauthorized tampering during both storage and transit. Once sealed, they form a one-time security closure that cannot be opened without visible damage. Any attempt to open them is therefore immediately apparent. Thanks to the unique serial number on each seal, it is also possible to easily track individual shipments, monitor their movement, and ensure full traceability throughout the logistics chain.
Where are they used?
Plastic security seals are used across a wide range of industries. They are most commonly used for sealing:
- trucks, trailers, and vans,
- storage cages and metal containers,
- transport boxes, plastic crates, and returnable packaging,
- mail bags and logistics packaging,
- pharmaceutical shipping boxes, thermal boxes, and shipments containing medications, where it is important to prove that the packaging was not tampered with during transport.
Key Benefits
- quick, tool-free installation,
- unique serial numbering for each seal,
- immediate visual inspection for unauthorized opening,
- low acquisition costs combined with a high level of security,
- High mechanical durability under normal use,
- easy tracking and traceability of shipments.
Protection During Transport
Security seals are most commonly installed on the rear doors of trucks, shipping containers, or lockable crates. Upon receipt, the recipient simply checks whether the seal is intact and whether its serial number matches the information in the shipping documentation. This ensures that the shipment has not been tampered with during transit. This simple verification method significantly enhances the security of logistics processes, reduces the risk of theft or unauthorized tampering, and is commonly used in the automotive, logistics, food, and pharmaceutical industries, where maintaining shipment integrity is absolutely critical.
