Light Activated Packaging Security Seals

Do you want to give your packaging another layer of security? Well, now you can with light-activated security seals. This type of packaging responds directly to unauthorized exposure, which means that when there is certain light and other stimuli, or tampering happens, the seals are activated. 

These security seals offer a unique way to protect all of your items, and should be considered if you want to have better packaging experiences. 

The technology 

With light-activated security seals, you use different technologies that will react whenever a light is shone upon it. 

UV sensitive inks are one example. These inks are pretty sensitive, so when a UV light is exposed, it reacts accordingly. 

Another example is infrared responsive coatings where infrared light will respond to different coatings and items. 

There are also color-changing security strips, which means that when the security of the items is maintained or compromised, a color changes, improving the packaging security. This also uses unique colors, indicative of the different types of packaging security that must be used. 

All of this comes together to properly protect your items. 

The applications 

With this type of technology, you use it with different sensitive items. One example is medicines and pharmaceuticals. These require another layer of security, and layered protection that will in turn make things better for you.   Your medicine needs that layer of protection, and with light-activated seals. It happens. 

Luxury goods are another. A lot of luxury items will benefit from this.    When you have these light-sensitive means of protection in place, it also protects such items as well from the growing layers of security which are needed. 

Finally, confidential documents. For sensitive documents, having light-activated seals is a necessity. If unauthorized exposure happens, then it will be further protected.   Again, these are used for high-level items, in order to add that extra necessary security layer. 

Thee benefits 

With light-activated seals, it prevents counterfeiting, which is where someone makes duplicates of items. Again, with this protection in place, it prevents it from happening, and means better trust and sales. 

It also provides visual evidence of tampering, which can be used as a means of proof of someone invading the packaging.  With visual evidence, it can be used for claims or more support. 

Finally, it boosts the product authenticity of the item, making it legitimate and really useful. With product authenticity, you’ll be able to prove that it’s yours, and gives higher levels of trust and security to your items. 

The future of these items 

Light-activated seals are starting to sweep the market, especially for those companies that need to have some extra protection from tampering and negligence. 

However, some companies have started to use AI driven security seals. That’s right, an AI can be used and activated in real time whenever a security breach happens, alerting the tracking systems of problems. These alerts tell the company right away what’s going on, and offer all sorts of responses to these matters. 

While still a ways away, there is the possibility of a security seal controlled by an AI, which uses light to activate the security AI might be possible. Again, this is still a ways away, but it does offer next level protection you might not get otherwise. 

Light-activated security seals are great for unauthorized exposure, offering you a chance to lay down more security of these items. By doing so, you’ll be able to have a safer, more secure packaging experience, building trust not only between you and the customers, but also amongst other brands as well with your innovative solutions.
