Tamper-Proof High Security RFID Seal – RFID E-Seal for Containers & Cargo
1. Introduction: RFID Seals for Smart Cargo & Container Security
In global trade and transportation, tamper-proof container seals are crucial for ensuring the integrity of shipments and compliance with customs regulations. The High Security RFID Seal (E-Seal) integrates a mechanical security lock with an embedded RFID chip, enabling both physical sealing and digital verification.
With UHF RFID technology, these seals allow fast, contactless scanning, real-time visibility, and enhanced anti-theft protection, making them indispensable for shipping companies, logistics providers, and customs authorities.
2. What is an RFID E-Seal?
An RFID E-Seal is a one-time-use tamper-evident security lock with a built-in RFID transponder. It provides:
-
Unique electronic ID for each container or shipment.
-
Tamper-proof sealing that breaks if forced open.
-
Automated RFID scanning at checkpoints and customs gates.
This ensures traceability, transparency, and security throughout the supply chain.
