Universeal is committed to working towards a more circular and low carbon economy, with environmentally friendly security seals which guarantee the integrity of your supply chains whilst not costing the earth.

Initially, our recycled content seals will be available in our Uniflag, DoubleLock, UNI411, UNI412, UNI413, UNI414, UNI415 and UNI416 security seal models. Security seals will be manufactured in special pale-yellow colour to denote its recycled content status, custom-printed to your particular needs, including logo, barcode and data matrix information.

Methodical engineering testing has been undertaken to ensure that recycled content plastic seals have the same characteristics in terms of strength, flexibility and durability as conventional plastic seals manufactured from virgin plastics.

All recycled plastic security seals will be manufactured with a minimum of 30% recycled content, ensuring that security seals are exempt from the UK Plastic Packaging Tax, designed to ensure the widespread adoption of recycled content materials within the UK packaging industry.
