Strengthen Your Security Chain with Avery Zweckform Security Labels

In an age where counterfeiting, tampering and unauthorised access are real threats — especially in logistics, manufacturing, electronics and retail — the right security labels are more than just stickers.  

This is why security labels are more than just functional stickers — they serve as your first line of defence in protecting goods, verifying authenticity, and maintaining control across the supply chain.  

The Avery Zweckform security label range offers three high-performance options to help you protect assets, track inventory and ensure compliance: Tamper-Proof Labels, No Peel Labels, and TripleBond™ Labels. 

In this article, we explore how each label type works, highlight key product options, and show how businesses in Singapore can effectively integrate them into their daily operations for stronger, more reliable security. 

1. Tamper-Proof Labels – Visible Evidence of Interference

If you want a label that signals instantly when someone has tried to remove or alter it, the Tamper-Proof line is designed to do exactly that. These labels provide clear, irreversible visual evidence of interference, making them a powerful deterrent against tampering. 

For example, the SKU Avery Zweckform Tamper Proof Labels L6114-20 (63.5 × 29.6 mm) leaves a visible “Checked” pattern upon removal. Once applied, any attempt to peel or reposition the label will permanently distort its surface, ensuring that tampering cannot go unnoticed. This makes it especially useful in environments where accountability and traceability are critical. 

Overall, Tamper-Proof Labels provide a simple yet highly effective way to enhance security, offering immediate visual cues that protect both your products and your business reputation. 

When to use them 

• Sealing package doors, crates or equipment enclosures 

• Security labels for warranty void-if-removed tags 

• Asset tags for high-value electronics or manufacturing equipment 

Key features 

• Polyester film, spray & tear-resistant, oil/dirt/temperature resistant from –40 °C to +100 °C  

• Free templates available for design & printing 

• High durability ensures the label actually executes its deterrent role 

2. No Peel Labels – Permanent Adhesion, No Risk of Removal

When you need labels that stick so well they can’t realistically be peeled off without visible damage, the No Peel category is your answer. These labels are engineered with ultra-strong adhesive properties, ensuring they cannot be removed without causing visible damage to either the label or the surface. 

For example, the SKU Avery Zweckform NoPeel Labels L6146-20 (63.5 × 33.9 mm, acrylic) is specifically optimised for surfaces where tamper resistance and permanence are essential. Once applied, the label bonds tightly, making any attempt to peel it off both difficult and clearly detectable. 

Use-cases 

• Asset identification on electronics, IT equipment, servers 

• Manufacturing parts that must be tracked and traceable 

• “Permanent” labels for items that should not be re-used or re-sold 

Why they matter 

• Makes removal attempts obvious (film cracks or residue remains) 

• Helps deter theft, re-labelling or unauthorised reuse 

• Supports compliance & audit trails 

3. TripleBond™ Labels – Ultra-Strong Adhesion for Tough Surfaces

For the harshest environments or awkward surfaces (hot, cold, plastic, textured metal), the TripleBond™ range uses extra-strong adhesives and rugged materials. Consider the SKU **Avery Zweckform TripleBond Labels L6140‑20 (45.7 × 25.4 mm) which offers “3-times stronger adhesion than conventional labels”, plus oil, dirt, UV and temperature resistance so it performs in extreme conditions.  

Ideal applications 

• Outdoor equipment, signage or containers 

• Cold-storage or high-temperature zones 

• Plastic or rough-metal housings where conventional labels fail 

Benefits at a glance 

• Strong permanent bond 

• Film label can be printed using your laser printer 

• Designed for reliability even when conditions are harsh 

How to Choose the Right Security Label for Your Business 

1. Evaluate the Threat Profile – Are you guarding against casual tampering (Tamper-Proof), unauthorised relocation (No Peel), or battling extreme environments (TripleBond)? 

1. Match to Surface & Environment – For smooth indoor surfaces, No Peel may suffice. For rugged or outdoor surfaces, TripleBond is ideal. 

1. Design & Printing Workflow – All categories have compatible sizes and templates for laser/colour printers, making on-demand printing easy. 

1. Brand & Identification Needs – Labels can carry logos, serials, QR codes for asset tracking or warranty management. 

1. Cost vs Risk Balance – High value assets justify premium security labels. Lower-risk items may use standard strong adhesives.

Getting Started: Practical Tips for Implementation 

Use a high-contrast design so tamper messages or residue show clearly when peeled. When designing your labels, prioritise clarity and visibility. Use bold fonts, dark text on light backgrounds (or vice versa), and avoid overly complex graphics that may obscure tamper indicators. This ensures that when a label is interfered with — whether it reveals a pattern, cracks, or leaves residue — the evidence is immediately noticeable during inspections or audits. This is especially important for security labels used in logistics, electronics, and compliance-heavy industries. 

Test adhesion on your actual surface before large deployment. Different surfaces — such as metal, textured plastic, painted finishes, or coated materials — can affect how well a label adheres. Before rolling out labels across your operations, conduct small-scale tests under real conditions, including exposure to heat, moisture, or handling. This helps you confirm that the label performs as expected and avoids costly rework or relabelling later. 

Ensure printer calibration: film labels may require different printer settings than standard paper. Security and heavy-duty labels, especially those made from film or synthetic materials, often behave differently from standard paper labels during printing. Adjust settings such as: 

• Print temperature (for laser printers) 

• Ink density or drying time (for inkjet printers) 

• Alignment and feed settings 

Proper calibration ensures sharp, smudge-free prints and accurate alignment, which is critical for barcodes, serial numbers, and QR codes. 

Record label SKU, batch and location in your asset/inventory system for audit tracking. For effective traceability, integrate your labeling process into your asset management system. Record key details such as: 

• Label SKU and batch number 

• Date of application 

• Asset or location where the label is applied 

This creates a clear audit trail, making it easier to track assets, investigate discrepancies, and maintain compliance with internal or regulatory requirements. 

Train staff: make sure they understand which label category is used where and why. Even the best labeling system can fail without proper implementation. Ensure your team understands: 

• The differences between Tamper-Proof, No Peel, and other security labels 

• When to use each type based on the application 

• How to apply labels correctly for maximum effectiveness 

Well-trained staff help maintain consistency, reduce errors, and ensure that labels fulfil their intended security function across your operations.
