Bi-Directional Vertical Impact Indicator

This single-use packaging indicator serves the purpose of notifying users about product drops or mishandling during transit. It acts as a deterrent to mishandling, reduces damage costs, and indicates potential impacts that may occur during transit or storage.

ShockWatch 2 offers seven sensitivities, each represented by a different colour. Users should select the sensitivity corresponding to their product’s impact tolerance and packaging. These indicators are attached to the exterior packaging, visually indicating the need for extra care during handling.

In the event of mishandling, the ShockWatch 2 changes colour. A white window indicates no mishandling, while a red window indicates mishandling, prompting the need for inspection to identify potential damage.
