What is a Tamper-Evident Label for Foodservice?

Tamper-evident labels for the food service industry are designed to seal your restaurant's takeout and delivery orders, while leaving evidence if the label is removed or repositioned in transit. That means that they easily rip apart when the bag or container is opened, and cannot be put back into place in one piece. Your customers can rest assured knowing that their food order has not been opened after it was prepared.

Unlike repositionable labels that are also commonly used for drive-thru and pick-up orders, these are permanent adhesive labels. They have die cuts throughout the design which cause the labels to quickly tear and show visual evidence of tampering. They can be used to securely seal pizza boxes, sandwich wraps, kraft bags, plastic cups and lids, and many other food and beverage packaging - assuring diners that their food has not been touched by anyone else.

"The tamper-resistant stickers from POS Supply Solutions have made a huge difference in our delivery and 3rd party business. By using the tamper-resistant stickers, we are able to serve our customers safely, which means a lot - especially during Covid-19." - Reza from Pizza Guys

Labels with these tamper-evident features have grown in popularity recently as more people are using Grubhub, Doordash, UberEats and other app order/carryout food delivery services due to the pandemic. Using tamper resistant labels lets customers know that your business cares about their wellbeing and the safety of their food, even after their order is out the door.

To meet this demand, POS Supply Solutions has added round and rectangular tamper proof labels to our product line with a red "Sealed for Safety & Freshness" design. And with more and more states allowing businesses to sell cocktails to-go, we’ve added a beverage tamper proof label for hot and iced drinks as well. Here's a lineup of what we currently offer:

We can also customize any tamper-proof seal label with your logo, website, promotions, surveys and more to help boost your restaurant's branding. Learn more about Custom Printed Tamper-Proof Seal Labels.

These tamper-evident labels can be easily hand applied and do not require any printers or applicators. However, we do carry a 3" Desktop Label Dispenser and a 4.5" Tabletop Label Dispenser for quick and easy application, especially while wearing gloves. Check out our video to see them in action!
