Industrial packaging has always come with challenges in the area of retaining product integrity.Transporting sensitive materials, such as government-regulated substances and expensive raw materials, is common in the sector. In many such cases, these materials are assigned to third-party shipping companies.
Thus, the question of safety and protection invariably becomes a top concern. So, how does one ascertain that the said products were not tampered with or have arrived in the same condition as they left?
These issues are directly addressed with Tamper-evident FIBCs. These FIBCs make any tampering instantly recognizable and detectable with a simple visual inspection, presenting an undeniable proof of deliberate mischief. They also ensure reassurance of product integrity for those managing environmentally sensitive or critical materials.
Unique Features of Tamper-evident FIBCs
1. Specialised Patterning
Tamper-evident FIBCs comprise a specific patterning made from woven polypropylene, intricately designed to match the different sections of the bag. Spot any deviations from the pattern, and one can contest the case for tampering or damage. Apart from adding to their unique design, these patterns contribute toward safety and protection by making the FIBCs more sturdy. Additionally, the unique patterning ensures that upon tampering, the same pattern cannot be manually reconstructed.
2. Continuous Stitching
Tamper-evident FIBCs are specially crafted with a continuous stitching pattern that offers a reliable way to identify tampering. To this end, the bags comprise a continuous stitching pattern on all seams. Any breaks in the pattern can render much-needed visual evidence for tampering or damage. Note that these stitches run along the length of the bag and cannot be repaired once broken.
3. Security Eyelets
Yet another protective feature is the eyelets. Usually, bags have discharge spouts that often act as an easy access point to tampering. However, Tamper-evident FIBCs overturn the risk factor. These come with security eyelets around the spouts. What’s even better, they can get secured using cable ties for added protection against tampering.
4. Double-walled Spouts
The double-walling of spouts helps seal the FIBC. The spouts comprise of a unique material that enables the end user to identify tampering or breakage.
All these features make it possible to identify tampering or damage resulting in optimal security, which increases the confidence of vendors, end-users, shipping agents and transportation companies.
In doing so, they ensure that the materials reach their recipients in the same condition as when shipped.
How Emmbi’s Efforts Are Making Strides To Identify Tampering
Featuring among the pioneers of polymer processing companies, Emmbi’s Tamper-evident FIBCs ensure a visual indication for filling and discharge. In case the FIBC gets altered in any form, it shall signal the compromise of the package. This indication is paramount to infringement and cross-border trade. Emmbi’s patented Tamper-evident FIBCs offer a four-layer safety known as “For Sure” that makes tampering impossible without instant detection.
