Shock, Tilt, Moisture and Temperature Indicators
Today´s demand for "Just-In-Time" deliveries with zero defects require shipping control measures to ensure that handling and transportation is performed with appropriate care.
Nefab delivers indicators to various industries and the wide product range makes it possible to find the most suitable solution for each customer.
Using indicators that instantly react on rough handling or environmental circumstances considerably reduces mishandling just because "people are made aware!". Indicating labels are supplied with each delivery of our indicators and attached to the outside of the shipment. This reminds people and makes them observant that handling should be performed properly.
Shock IndicatorsShock indicators are used to prevent damage due to rough handling. T hey are available in different sensitivities (G-forces) depending on the size, the weight and on the sensitivity of the product.
If a shock occurs with an impact that is worse than the activating level of the Shock indicator the indicator will be activated. Most of the indicators are irreversible.
Tilt Indicators
Tilt indicators prevent tilting of the packaging.
If tilting occurs, the indicator is activated and this is irreversible.
An adapted label prevents the Tilt indicator to be removed or replaced.
Moisture Indicators
Moisture indicators give an indication of the % relative humidity inside a packaging during transport or storage. Moisture indicators come in a reversible and irreversible version and are mostly supplied together with desiccants.
Temperature Indicators
Temperature indicators indicate the exceeding of a minimum or maximum temperature to which a product has been exposed.
