Warranty labels

16 February 2011 Manufacturing / Production Technology, Hardware & Services

Diri Enterprises has introduced new warranty labels for hi-tech electronic equipment.

The South African-manufactured labels feature security sealing, liquid sealing and heat detection functionality.

The security material used to manufacture the labels is designed to break into small fragments if removal is attempted, making it very difficult for unauthorised persons to tamper with the product without evidence of the act being visible. Certain size labels (10 x 6 mm, 16,5 x 5,1 mm and 19,1 x 6,4 mm) are further enhanced with security slits to make it even more secure and difficult for fraudsters to tamper with the product and then try and claim warranties.

In the presence of moisture or liquid contamination, the labels will aqua bleed across their surface. If the owner of the product tries to dry the label it will distribute the aqua bleed ink further across the label. An irreversible colour changing ink will permanently change the label colour if heat is applied to the product to try and remove the label. The label will also become hard and may even change shape as heat is applied. It can also perform heat detection where the maximum permissible temperatures do not exceed 60°C, over which temperature the label will change irreversibly to a grey/black colour.

Diri Enterprises also manufactures legally approved ICASA labels for all wireless, telecoms and radio frequency devices.
