Tamper Proof Tapes with Laser Marking

Theft Prevention – Automotive Tamper Evident Labelling Innovations

Whether it’s for VIN, certification, service, security or warning/instruction information, a variety of labelling systems is required throughout a vehicle. Some have to be absolutely tamperproof and others have to resist extreme external influences, e.g. in the engine.

We offer a comprehensive assortment of security labels to fulfil all requirements, combining the knowledge of laser marking technologies with expertise in self-adhesive films.

With our laser labels we combine a high-performance adhesive with a data carrier that is destroyed upon tampering. Our tamper evident labels comply with the legal (NHTSA, EEC, GB) and manufacturer-specific regulations of the automotive industry.

Our laser labels are also available with customer-specific visible and hidden security features integrated into the labels to maximise security against tampering. In addition to the standard security labels used on metal and plastics, we offer our unique glass-marking laser-transfer film for windowpane marking.

Automotive Warning and Instruction Labels

Tire pressure and fuel information, engine compartment service instructions, as well as airbag, engine and air conditioning warnings are only some examples of the wide range of labels in use throughout the vehicle. Our warning and instruction labels contain user information; they caution the driver against safety hazards and provide service instructions. The cross-linked acrylic label material is ideally suited for a long-lasting and highly resistant application.

Automotive Security Labels

Our tamper evident labels are also available with customer-specific visible and hidden security features integrated into the labels to maximize security against tampering. Throughout the vehicle, our security labels are used for very critical information such as nameplates and vehicle identification numbers (VIN), they securely mark parts, and can of course also be used as warning and instruction labels if desired. They are also available as a label set solution.

Automotive Glass Marking

In addition to the standard security labels used on metal and plastics, we offer the unique tesa^® 6926 glass marking laser transfer film for windowpane marking. It enables a tamperproof encoding of car windowpanes with vehicle specific data. The lettering is extremely resistant to abrasive wear, weather, temperature, and chemical influences. The marking is done without corrosive substances and does not mechanically influence the glass.
