Protects cosmetics without covering branding

Checkpoint Systems has introduced a new product to its series of enhanced performance (EP) electronic article surveillance (EAS) labels range – a tamper tag that can be placed on, or inside small, high-risk items and which can be designed for optimal alignment with the retailer’s loss prevention strategy.

The company says it is the first to manufacture a label that will not degrade packaging or interfere with packaging design. The tag, which has a printing and adhesive that makes it tamper resistant, also allows for protection against the theft without jeopardising the brand image.

In addition, the tag has been proven to reduce shrinkage by more than 50%.

“Next to the long list of benefits that the EP Clear range of tags offers today, the introduction of the EP Clear tamper tag also creates a new level of collaboration between retailers and Checkpoint to address the issue of sales availability,” commented Farrokh Abadi, Checkpoint’s worldwide president of shrink sales management systems. “We believe EP Clear Tamper Tag meets an unmet requirement and will make a difference to the bottom line of our customers while improving shoppers’ experience.”
