The importance of packaging security cannot be overstated, particularly in today's climate where product adulteration and tampering pose significant threats. Improper security sealing easily allows manipulation of the integrity of products. For brands, ensuring the authenticity of their products and protecting their brand image is paramount. Counterfeiters often pilfer products and tamper with their composition, diluting their quality and deceiving end-users. This deception poses dire consequences, particularly in the F&B industry, where consumers' health is at stake.
As the urgency for anticounterfeiting packaging spurs broader awareness the industry is gaining momentum as the premier solution for safeguarding against theft, adulteration, contamination, and counterfeiting. Safcon Security Seals- an ISO- 9001:2015 certified security seal company, recognized this urgency and the existing market gap early, thereby pioneering the development and manufacturing of tamper-evident security seals over three decades ago, when the concept was still in its infancy.
With the onset of the pandemic, consumers have grown more discerning, seeking credibility and authenticity from brands. Security seals represent a swift and efficient means of enhancing protection within the supply chain, requiring collaboration from shippers, logistics companies, and other stakeholders. Nevertheless, their effectiveness is contingent on the proper protocols governing their selection, procurement, usage, inspection, and training. Safcon, with its drive to ensure impenetrable sealing, has designed a comprehensive approach for not just product creation, but also for educating clients about the appropriate solutions for their needs. Evolving with the industry, Safcon transformed advanced security seals beyond mere compliance products to comprehensive solutions.
Promising Security
Safcon Security Seals offers a diverse range of tamperevident plastic and metal security seals, most of which are RoHS and CE compliant; tailored to a wide spectrum of applications, from securing truck tarpaulins to safeguarding utility meters. The plastic security seal lineup includes Posigrip, Pull-tite, Mini-tite, Ball-lok, Anchor, Drum secure, and Safegrip, all meticulously designed for specific purposes. Similarly, the selection of metal barrier security seals, such as Sentry Seals, Guard-lok, Multi-pro, Cable, Wire, Saflok Container, and Bolt Container Seals, caters to bulk liquid tankers, box trucks, and shipping containers.
However, Safcon's innovation doesn't stop at product security alone. The team pioneered utility meter security seals to combat power theft and revenue loss, replacing outdated lead seals with its patented Metgrip Polycarbonate Meter Security Seal, which is now the industry standard. The firm’s ongoing commitment to improving and developing new security seals is evident in offerings like RevGuard, SmartShield, iProtect, and TamperSafe meter seals.
Each seal developed by Safcon is an in-house design which is customized with unique security IDs, non-repeat serial numbers, and hidden marks to distinguish genuine products from counterfeits. Many new meter seal is provided with barcoded seal number to read, record and verify the seal digitally. This dedication has played a crucial role in reducing average AT&C losses from over 60 percent to approximately 20 percent. This has also made the firm a trusted partner in the industry with a global footprint spanning Asia, Far East, Middle-east, Australia, Africa, Europe, South America, and North America.
“One must always remember that 'Poor Security is No Security' and hence quality of the seal should be the focus at procurement and sourcing stage. To ensure this, all our security seals are our original design and most of our products are patented.
Our security seals are unique in design and we use the best raw materials for manufacturing security seals without any compromise on quality”, shares Rajesh Kumar Banka, Managing Director, Safcon Security Seals.
Safcon has meticulously crafted its production process, incorporating quality checks at each stage to deliver topquality products. Every security seal that leaves the firm’s facility is held to the highest standards ensuring that every seal in a supply lot meets the utmost quality, recognizing that even a single subpar seal could compromise the security and integrity of the entire consignment.
Safcon has been an innovator that has introduced groundbreaking products such as its superior cable security seal solution, characterized by a cutting-edge DPM Data Matrix 2D barcode that is directly engraved onto the seal itself. This innovative feature facilitates the seamless digital tracking, reading, recording, and verification of seal numbers and associated details. Importantly, once a cable seal is removed, reattachment becomes impossible, ensuring an extra layer of security. This heightened level of security, though a little expensive, is invaluable for protecting sensitive products transported in milk tankers, oil tankers, and bulk liquid tankers.
“Many companies use the security seals just as if it is statutory need as they believe that security seals never work because they may have burnt their hands with the cheap security seals or maybe they are not using the right kind of security seal suitable for their purpose or the protocol for using the security seal is not followed. One should always remember that security seals are like 24-hours security guards for their products then it will be clear why they should always hire the most well-trained security guard to safeguard their valuables”, further adds Rajesh Kumar Banka.
Customers First & Fast
Safcon exemplifies a commitment to customer satisfaction that sets it apart. From the very first interaction, the company prioritizes a deep understanding of each customer's unique requirements, ensuring that the offered products align perfectly with the intended application. What truly distinguishes the brand is the consistent strive to achieve exceptional quality. Remarkably, over the past three decades, not a single complaint regarding product quality or accuracy of supplies has arisen. Such a track record is a testament to Safcon’s rigorous approach and well-trained staff.

“We are the only company in India that does not just sell security seals, but also offers advice on how to implement the most effective seal control system. After analysis of the protection level required, the most suitable and costeffective security seal for the application is recommended.
Factors considered in analysis include: the value of the goods/revenue to be protected, nature of the product, past theft practice, possible method of tampering, period of protection, and more”, further shares Rajesh Kumar Banka. The company's core policy, "Customers First and Fast," is a core guiding principle ingrained in every employee. The team is always ready to go the extra mile to serve customers, delivering precisely what is expected. Safcon doesn't just talk about customer-centricity – it lives and breathes it.
