Tamper Evident Sleeves

Tamper evident sleeves act as a secondary seal around your bottle or container to prevent contamination and tampering. They provide visual tamper evidence to the end consumer, helping to reduce shelf reject rates and enhance your brand integrity.

Our tamper evident bands provide a simple, effective way to protect your products, reassure consumers, and meet retailer requirements — without compromising on brand presentation.

Key information:

• Available in a variety of materials including recyclable PET, 30% recycled content rPET and industrially compostable PLA.
• Multiple formats to suit your production capability: reel-fed, pre-cut sleeves and pre-formed sleeves

Plastic-free shrink sleeves

Sustainability is at the core of what we do, we are the worlds’ only producer of biodegradable self-shrinking sleeves. Alongside this, the sleeves are also home-compostable and plastic-free. The sleeves are heat-free, meaning that they will self-shrink at room temperature within an hour and are the ideal solution for heat sensitive products. They are also hand-applied meaning there is no need for investment in bulky, heavy, or expensive equipment, just pop them over your container and leave to self-shrink.

Contract sleeving service

To make the sleeving process even easier, we also offer a complete contract sleeving service.

We can manufacture and apply sleeves directly to your products, providing a convenient end-to-end packaging solution that saves time and simplifies production.
