Secure And Tamper Proof

E-seals are more secure and tamperproof and have replaced the conventional mechanical sealing of containers, also eliminating their need for physical examination.

With the global increase in volumes of maritime trade and logistics, there has been a major increase in instances of tampering of existing mechanical seals. This gives rise to challenges like smuggling of banned material including drugs, theft of container cargo, and illegal transport of stowaways. Many times the tampering of container seals is non-evident to the naked eye and manual examination of each and every container can be time consuming and causes congestion inside Ports, thus resulting in delays. Physical inspection is also dangerous in case of containers containing hazardous materials.
