StrapLok

I am very proud of the work put forth by the entire team to deliver best-in-class products.”

Density Tag

Critical Protection of Boxed Store Merchandise
Density Tag is so innovative that it was selected as a finalist for the Retail Industry Leaders Association’s 2017 Tech Asset Protection Innovation Awards. It protects valuable items inside packaged merchandise by “sensing” presence through the box. If the item is removed from the package, the change in measured density results in an alarm. Density Tag offers the ultimate protection of the actual merchandise inside the box, helping to prevent malicious customer fraud, without the need for puncturing a hole in the packaging. Key features include:

  • AM or RF technology
  • 2- or 3-Alarm® (activates EAS alarm if a breach occurs, arms when merchandise is tampered with in store, and self alarms if merchandise is removed from store)
  • 95-decibel alarm and flashing LED light
  • Isolated sound chamber
  • Easy to apply and remove by retailers
  • Available in the fourth quarter of 2017

StrapLok

Protecting Boxed Merchandise with Nylon Straps
Many retailers use nylon straps around boxes to prevent consumers from opening merchandise in the store and to confirm to potential buyers that all boxed parts are inside.

StrapLok quickly attaches onto existing box nylon straps. Thanks to the dynamic tension adjustment, it is compatible with low-quality, loose straps found on boxes already pre-strapped from manufacturing. StrapLok is unique in actively monitoring the strap’s tension and will only alarm if the strap is being cut. The key advantage is that pulling on the StrapLok will not generate false alarms, and the StrapLok readjusts to any strap tension variation related to the pull. Key features include:

  • AM or RF technology
  • 2- or 3-Alarm® (activates EAS alarm if a breach occurs, arms when merchandise is tampered with in store, and self alarms if merchandise is removed from store)
  • 95-decibel alarm and flashing LED light
  • Isolated sound chamber
  • Easy to apply and remove
  • Tough, secure, and reusable
  • Available in the second quarter of 2017
