ShockWatch® Serialised Labels – Frequently Asked Questions
What are ShockWatch Serialised Labels used for?
ShockWatch Serialised Labels provide high-sensitivity impact detection with a unique serial number for full traceability. They are used in regulated supply chains where chain-of-custody and audit documentation are essential.
How do ShockWatch Serialised Labels work?
Each label contains a calibrated glass ampoule that turns red when a damaging impact occurs. The serial number links the activation to a specific shipment, preventing label swapping or tampering.
Why choose serialised labels instead of standard ShockWatch labels?
Serialised labels are required when you must document each individual shipment, such as in medical devices, aerospace components, defence logistics, and high-value equipment.
Do ShockWatch Serialised Labels deter mishandling?
Yes. The presence of a ShockWatch label significantly reduces rough handling. Serialisation adds accountability by linking the indicator to a specific shipment ID.
What sensitivity level should I choose?
Choose the sensitivity based on the fragility and mass of your shipment. Higher sensitivity (lower G-level) is used for fragile items, while lower sensitivity (higher G-level) suits robust goods. Refer to the ShockWatch Label Overview PDF for guidance.
Can ShockWatch Serialised Labels be used on large crates or pallets?
Yes. They are suitable for cartons, crates, and palletised loads. For very large shipments, multiple labels may be used to ensure visibility.
Are ShockWatch Serialised Labels single-use?
Yes. Once activated, the indicator permanently changes colour and cannot be reset, ensuring a tamper-evident record of impact.
