Destructible vinyl labelsalso known as tamper-evident or ultra-destructible labels are a clever security solution designed to self-destruct when someone tries to remove them. They are widely used to prevent unauthorized access, deter theft, and ensure product authenticity.

These labels are made from a brittle vinyl facestock combined with a strong acrylic adhesive. Once applied, they bond tightly to the surface and shatter into tiny pieces if tampered withmaking it impossible to remove and reapply without visible damage.
