Tamper Evident Labels for Shipping Containers
Protecting What Moves the World.
Secure global shipments with permanent, traceable tamper evident labels built for international container transit.
Tamper Evident Container Labels
Shipping containers move high-value cargo across continents — but between ports, borders, and customs checks, they’re vulnerable to tampering, theft, and unauthorised entry. Our Tamper Evident Container Labels give you a fast, visible, and irreversible way to secure containers, trailers, drums, and air freight during global transit.
Engineered for harsh logistics environments and trusted by logistics, defence, and border teams, these labels create a visible chain of custody from origin to delivery — helping you comply with international shipping protocols and protect cargo from interference.
Why Choose Tamper Evident Container Labels?
These labels are security devices. Designed to leave a VOID or OPENED message if removed, slit, or tampered with, our container seals provide instant visual proof of interference.
Whether applied to sealed doors, latches, hatches, bolts, or drum lids, they form a permanent bond and leave behind clear tamper evidence if breached. No guesswork. No grey areas.
Key Features
Permanent Tamper Evidence
Once applied, labels cannot be removed or repositioned without leaving behind a permanent “VOID” or “OPENED” warning message — even if the adhesive is slit or scraped.
Dual Number Tabs (DNT)
Each label includes two matching serial number tabs for shipping records:
One tab stays with the shipment
The second is affixed to a Bill of Lading, manifest, or customs document
This adds a simple yet powerful cross-checking tool for auditing and tracking.

How They Work

Real-World Example: Container Tamper Alert in Transit
A UK-based logistics provider shipping bonded pharmaceuticals to the Middle East implemented TamperTech container labels after experiencing undetected seal breaches with traditional plastic ties.
After rollout:
Customs clearance times improved by 41%
One attempted breach detected early, saving £38,000 in stock
Shipping documentation became more transparent and verifiable
The company adopted TamperTech labels across all international shipments
Tamper evidence gave them more than protection — it gave them control.
