Plasto-Sac Security Envelopes

A single-trip envelope for the transfer of money, valuable items, classified documents. Definition : Plasto-Sac Security Envelopes

Definition of “Tamper-Evident”:  Any attempt to tamper with the closed envelope, in any known way, must leave unequivocal and unchangeable signs.  The signs must be closed to misinterpretation.  These signs must be clearly visible at arm’s distance.  The tamper-evident mechanism must be solid and reliable, to prevent false alarms during normal use of the envelope.

5 Security Mechanisms are employed …… Plasto-Sac Security Envelopes

1. Mechanism Attempts to open the closure tape result in the appearance of the words VOID or STOP. Plasto-Sac Security Envelopes

1. Mechanism The VOID or STOP mechanism is activated during attempts to tamper with the tape/envelope at –  ambient temperature  at cold temperatures, below ambient temperature and down to -45 o C (using freezer conditions, pipe freezing fluid, or freezing spray)  by the use of heat above ambient temperature and up to the temperature at which polyethylene changes form (using an oven, steam, hair drier, etc.) Plasto-Sac Security Envelopes

2. Mechanism The security tape is multi-layered, with very fine layers.  The internal layer is serrated by micro-perforation.  Peeling the tape will break the tape ’ s structure in a manner which is evident and cannot be corrected, nor reconstructed.  This mechanism is unique, proprietary and patented.

3. Mechanism Attempts to open the envelope by dissolving the glue with different solvents cause a partial or full disappearance of the red colored, diagonally printed lines on the tape. Plasto-Sac Security Envelopes

4. Mechanisms Attempts to open the envelope through the heat- sealed edges, whether heat-sealed again or not, cause an opening to appear, and/or the disappearance of the fine print along the soldering. Plasto-Sac Security Envelopes

5. Mechanism Attempts to change the serial number on the envelope cause a mismatch between the number on the envelope and the one appearing under the safety tape, which can be accessed only through complete removal of the tape. Plasto-Sac Security Envelopes

Triggering the Mechanisms : All tamper-evident mechanisms must be activated immediately upon closing the envelope. Plasto-Sac Security Envelopes

1. Materials The envelope is produced from polyethylene plastic film. Several different options are possible, according to clients ’ needs. Several common options are listed below:  A transparent film, allowing for clear viewing of the envelope ’ s contents.  A gray film, for optical opacity.  A co-extruded (double or triple layer) film, white on the external layer of the envelope and black on the internal layer, achieving a total optical opacity.

Thickness : According to the needs of the client. Thickness generally ranges between microns. Measure- ments : According to customer needs. Allowed Deviation: Thickness: ± 8% Length\width: ± 5% Strength and aspect : Adjustable strength (tear, impact and puncture resistant), and aspect of the film (e.g.high-friction anti-slip exterior film quality). 2. Materials Plasto-Sac Security Envelopes

Numbering: Each envelope is numbered to avoid substitution after tampering, as well as for easy follow-up on delivery and reception. Bar-coding: If demanded, the numbering will include barcode. Possible bar-coding methods are 2/5 and 39. Document Pocket: A document pocket, with or without glue, on the external part of the envelope, is an option. The pocket is usually made of a 50-micron transparent polyethylene. Printing: According to the client’s demand, up to four colors (the background in the areas used for writing is usually matte white). Note: Design can affect security level.

Additional Notes : Storage conditions: The envelopes and packages should not be exposed to direct sunlight. Their storage place should be dry, cool and shaded, and not exposed to dust. Expiry: If the right storage conditions are provided, the envelope’s expiry date is up to one year (under general guarantee conditions). Tests:In every production lot the following are checked and tested: Measurements, thickness, strength, print and heat-seal. All tamper-evident mechanisms are examined in all environmental conditions and temperature ranges. Examinations take place: a) upon the closure of the envelope. b) after one hour. c) after 24 hours of closure. Quality documents: The client receives a Certificate of Analysis (C.O.A.) for each lot of envelopes. Plasto-Sac Security Envelopes
