Security Containers for the Transportation of Valuables

Highly advanced security solutions are a prerequisite for companies requiring cash-handling services when transporting their valuables and documents. Even the best imaginable tools and methods available cannot completely prevent a crime.

But the more closely it is possible to monitor the different stages in the transport chain of valuables, the less likely it is that a crime will be committed, which also, for example, improves the sender's legal protection.

With heavy emphasis on R&D, Suominen Flexible Packaging Ltd. has risen to the challenges of transportation and safekeeping of valuables by developing the AMERSAFE security bag with a wide range of highly advanced and thoroughly tested security features. It is impossible for an outsider to tamper with the bag without leaving a trace, because no attempted break-in goes unnoticed. It is also easy to control and document the safekeeping and transport of bags, as the attached bar code and serial number individualise each bag. Consequently, it soon comes to one's attention if the bag disappears or someone tries to tamper with it, making it increasingly difficult for the perpetrator to escape without a trace.

AMERSAFE security bags are ideal for sealing when transporting  valuable goods of companies requiring cash-handling services, such as the retail sector, banks and security companies. They also lend themselves well to the safekeeping of valuables and documents in hotels, hospitals, police departments and the corporate sector. Suominen Flexible Packaging Ltd. already began to develop its security bag - which falls into the special products category - ten years ago. The past 4-5 years have seen an extraordinarily active period of product development and machinery purchases, with a host of new, efficient security features incorporated into the bag. These features have also obtained several patents. In addition, the product has passed a number of international quality tests. The product is highly competitive by international standards, and Suominen Flexible Packaging Ltd. is seeking agents or dealers to represent the product.

The tamper-evident sealing method of the AMERSAFE security bag ensures that opening the bag without leaving evidence is impossible. The indicators hidden in the AMERSAFE security tape reveal whether someone has attempted to tamper with the bag, which is shown in visible changes in the adhesive tape or in the fact that the tape is damaged. In addition, strong adhesive that sticks immediately and extends to the edge of the bag, coupled with the perforated tape, prevents any opening of the bag without leaving a trace.

A serial number and bar code individualise each bag, which also makes it impossible to mix them up with each other. The numbering is repeated on slips detachable from the flap, which makes it easy to control the different stages in the safekeeping, transport and arrival of bags.

In addition to security features, the company's product development has also paid special attention to the bags' user friendliness and user efficiency. In this respect, a case in point is the patented Easy Release adhesive tape, which is extremely easy to remove, leading to quicker closing.

The premium-quality polyethylene multi-layer film used as raw material in the manufacture of AMERSAFE security bags guarantees superior durability and reliability. The lightweight and compact package also withstands humidity and tolerates rough handling. And, thanks to micro-perforation, it has the desired effect through colour cartridges that colour notes in the bag when tampered with.
