Presentation on security products for KEPZ companies

SECURITY SEALS: E J Brooks Company, the oldest security seal manufacturing company in the world in collaboration with Vigilant Security and Investigation Services conducted a presentation for companies in the Katunayake Export Processing Zone in Seeduwa recently.

E J Brooks is the world's leading manufacturer of tamper evident seals and meter related security products. For over 130 years, the company has offered the broadest line of security seals and locking devices for untold sealing requirements, within the transportation, cash in transit, retailing and utility industries.

They provide the highest quality products and have instituted a sophisticated CQI (Continuous Quality Improvement) process.

The presentation titled 'Loss prevention and asset protection using security seals' was held to generate awareness on what seals are, and how they can be used to protect cargo sealing has become a safety and security imperative in every industry.

This is especially relevant to the garment industry when exporting clothes in bulk to other parts of the world, in order to prevent tampering, pilferage or theft of what is being exported.

Managing Director, Vigilant Security and Investigation Services Mario Perumal stated that a good seal should be tamper evident by indicating tampering at a glance, should have the company name, a sequential number to promote quality control, and should be designed for one time use only.

Ceylon Electricity Board, Board of Investment Transnational Logistics, Hands International and Galadari Hotel are some of Vigilants existing clients. Brooks worldwide also supplies security seals to US Customs, Boeing, Coca-Cola, DHL, Federal Express, Shell, Sony, Volkswagen and the United States Postal Service.
