Tamper-Evident Packaging Measures
The ability for an end user to identify that secondary packaging has been tampered with or opened is vital to minimize risk and ensure safety. Tamper-evident packaging provides visible evidence that the product is intact. For pharmaceuticals, tamper-evident packaging is a legal requirement, while for other products, it offers security and reassurance of quality through the supply chain.
Tamper-evident closures can be created via intelligent structural design and can be tailored to meet the requirements of the market. Options include glued tabs in combination with a tear or thumb-shaped perforation, tamper-evident labels, and flexible packaging that changes color once opened.
