When someone tampers with a product or piece of equipment that is off limits, warranty void labels are usually the only way a company knows.
Warranty void labels are often the last line of defense for a company trying to avoid potential liabilities. Whether it’s a barcode warranty label or a video game system in someone’s home, a void label is often attached.
For almost three decades Data Graphics Inc has been manufacturing warranty void labels for the aerospace, telecommunications, medical, military and manufacturing industries.
In the case of a video game system manufacturer, warranty void labels are affixed to the chassis of the system. Most systems come with a limited one or two year warranty on the condition that you don’t open the machine up and start tinkering around with the parts. This cuts down on fraudulent claims. For example, some customers purchase electronic components and swap the new one for the old, then return the old one posing as the new one for a refund. Void labels can also deter unauthorized use of cabinets, doors or boxes. Health departments often use tamper evident labels to seal the access to files or contaminants.
There are different kinds of warranty void labels. Some void labels are position in a way that they are severed when something is opened up. Other void labels have a permanent adhesive and when they are peeled away they leave behind a residue. Some void labels when they are peeled away leave behind a layer with words “Void” printed on it.
Many warranty void labels come with different messages saying pretty much the same thing. For example your void labels can say a lot, “Warranty Void if label is removed." This label is tamper evident", and an "All Warranties are invalid at the removal or tampering of this label,” or very little, “Warranty Void If Tampered.”
Warranty void labels can be manufactured in many different shapes, colors and sizes.
Void labels can be printed using several different methods. They can be screen printed, hot stamp printed, thermal transfer printed, digitally printed, and flexographic printed.
