LGInternational’s security solutions are an effective means to make your product and packaging tamper indicating. Our security capabilities enable you to choose from a wide range of products designed to:

• Indicate and discourage tampering
• Prevent abuse of warranties and false claims
• Authenticate products
• Track the path of products through the supply chain

Self-destructing labels

Self-destructing labels are a popular choice for product identification labels, specifically those that may be required for warranty and product authentication purposes. Self-destructing labels are designed so that they cannot be removed without some sign of tampering. These labels can be printed with branding, certification and product information, including barcodes and serialized data.

VOID labels and tapes

VOID labels and tapes, also called “Evidence Tape”, are designed to separate into layers when removed. These labels are made to expose a pattern and/or words when the tape or label is peeled off—leaving a patterned adhesive on the substrate. The effectiveness of VOID products is affected by the surface of the substrate, so one product may perform differently than another depending on the surface to which it will be adhered. VOID labels and tapes can be provided with standard VOID text/patterns or with custom text/patterns.

Security labels, tapes and seals

Security labels, tapes and seals are designed to indicate or reveal if a seal has been broken by making it extremely difficult to match a pattern once it has been cut or by revealing words, for example, some time after the seal has been broken. Patterns for security labels, tapes and seals are typically laid out diagonally to increase the difficulty of matching up after being cut. This approach provides a fairly minimal degree of security, but it is also an inexpensive option.

Holographic foil security labels and seals

Holographic foil security labels and seals are an ideal choice for product authentication. These products reveal a holographic image when tilted in the light. The image that is revealed is customized to your specifications for maximum effect.

RFID tagging

RFID tags provide an efficient and powerful method for tracking containers and individual products. Depending on the type of RFID tag used, custom and serialized information can be added during the manufacturing process and even throughout various points of the supply chain from point of origin to point of use.

Security taggants

Security taggants enable manufacturers to covertly identify their products using microscopic chemical or organic tags that are added to packaging elements. Taggants may be unique to a manufacturer, product, or even particular lots of a product. Ink is an especially effective means of taggant inclusion because the taggants can be easily moved to various parts of the packaging—raising the anti-counterfeiting bar.

Specialty inks

Specialty inks are another effective means of adding covert brand protection. Inks detected with ultra-violet or infrared ink can provide an effective security layer. Specialty inks can also be leveraged to insure products are shipped and stored within specified temperature and moisture levels.
