Tamper Evident VOID and Destructible Labels
Tamper evident labels are an essential tool for businesses that need to protect products, packaging, or equipment against tampering, counterfeiting, or unauthorised access. At Northern Label Systems Ltd, we supply a comprehensive range of VOID labels and destructible labels designed to give you and your customers confidence in the integrity of your products.
What Are VOID Labels?
VOID labels are made with a special adhesive that leaves behind a clear message (usually the word “VOID” or a chequered pattern) when someone tries to remove the label. This makes it immediately obvious if packaging, equipment, or security seals have been interfered with.
-
Applications: Security sealing, warranty protection, asset marking, product authentication.
-
Benefits: Clear visual evidence of tampering, strong adhesion to a wide variety of surfaces, easy to apply.
-
Industries: Electronics, pharmaceuticals, logistics, automotive, and retail.
What Are Destructible Labels?
Destructible labels are designed to fragment or break apart when tampered with. Instead of peeling off in one piece, the label shatters into tiny fragments, making it impossible to remove and reapply without leaving visible damage.
-
Applications: Asset labels, warranty void stickers, product authentication, compliance labelling.
-
Benefits: Impossible to remove in one piece, extremely durable once applied, strong deterrent against tampering or fraud.
-
Industries: Manufacturing, healthcare, IT and electronics, high-value goods.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are tamper evident labels used for?
Tamper evident labels are designed to show visible signs if packaging, equipment, or products have been opened, altered, or interfered with. They are commonly used for security sealing, asset protection, and warranty labelling.
What is the difference between VOID labels and destructible labels?
VOID labels leave a clear message (such as the word “VOID”) or pattern on the surface when removed. Destructible labels break apart into tiny fragments if tampered with, making them impossible to peel off and reapply intact.
Can I print on tamper evident labels?
Yes. Both VOID and destructible labels can be supplied blank for overprinting with thermal transfer printers, allowing you to add barcodes, serial numbers, or batch codes. Pre-printed options with logos or branding are also available.
Are tamper evident labels waterproof?
Many tamper evident labels are resistant to water, chemicals, and handling, making them suitable for use in demanding environments such as logistics, manufacturing, and healthcare.
Do you supply custom sizes and designs?
Yes, Northern Label Systems can produce tamper evident labels in custom sizes, shapes, and adhesives, with the option for bespoke pre-printing to include your logo or security text.
