Chromatic Technologies Tamper Alert heat-activated ink
Chromatic Technologies has announced Tamper Alert, an irreversible, heat-activated ink technology to identify tamper evidence in labels and packaging for food, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, electronics and other products targeted for theft and counterfeiting.
It provides users with a tight activation window where the alert transitions from colourless to full colour within a range of 10°C. Traditional irreversible technologies require a transition window between 30 to 50°C. This results in weak colour activation and detection at lower temperatures.
The technology is available with target activation temperatures of 50, 60, 70 and 80°C.
It also incorporates the company’s Turbo colour technology, creating colour alert in tamper evidence in blue, green, black and red.
At present, it is available only in water-based applications.
