Better Packages the number-one trusted name in water-activated tape dispensers and carton sealers announces the introduction of reinforced BetterSeal Secure Tape. The reinforced tape, which is part of a new, complete line of water-activated tapes from Better Packages, provides a tamper-evident seal when used on corrugated cartons. According to the US FDA report Combating Counterfeit Drugs issued in February 2004, Tamper evident packaging may be beneficial in fighting counterfeiting of prescription drugs. Reinforced BetterSeal Secure Tape readily displays signs of tampering and can be one valuable component in a comprehensive anti-counterfeiting plan. BetterSeal Secure Tape offers security and strength benefits that other sealing methods do not. For example, unlike plastic pressure-sensitive tape, which can be easily removed and replaced leaving little or no trace of tampering, BetterSeal (water-activated tape) bonds with the carton and produces a tamper-evident, secure seal. Manufacturers, food and drug companies and government agencies, including the US Postal Service and the FBI, recognize the benefits of using water-activated tape as a simple, cost-effective means to help protect the contents of their packages from tampering and thievery. The tamper-evident benefits and properties of BetterSeal Secure Tape are further extended with optional printers and other accessories to enhance security. Better Packages dispensers can be fitted with a Code Taper, which imprints words, numbers or codes on the tape at the time it is dispensed. Optional Security Ink prints codes on the tape using invisible ink. The codes, viewable only with black light, tell a company if anyone has tampered with a package. When combined with visible inks, the measure of security increases greatly.
