SEALTAMPER-EVIDENT SYSTEMS
EST. 2009 — CHICAGO, IL

Engineered to fail.
Once.

Heat-shrink bands, breakable caps, and void-label substrates calibrated so the first human finger to twist, peel, or lift leaves irreversible proof. Every perforation tolerance-spec'd to ±0.1N.

UNITS — 2023

Counterfeit pharmaceutical units intercepted by tamper-evident closures in 2023 alone — before reaching end consumers.

Detection mechanisms: sequential perforation failure patterns, activation-temperature-indexed shrink profiles, void-label substrate adhesion calibration. Each seal type generates a forensically distinct breach signature — enabling post-incident chain-of-custody reconstruction.

VOID PATTERN REVEALVOID LABEL

Pressure-sensitive substrate releases "VOID OPENED" pattern on substrate removal — cannot be concealed

INDUCTION BOND RUPTUREINDUCTION

Foil-to-container bond requires 7.4N minimum — leaves visible residue on both surfaces

BREAKABLE BRIDGE SNAPBREAKABLE CAP

Ratchet bridges engineered to snap at first rotation — produces audible confirmation crack
