ISO/PAS 17712 affects users of all types of security seals. At the present time and due to enhanced Customs security requirements market focus is concentrated on seals classed as high security "H" traditionally manufactured as a bolt or cable type seal.
Suppliers must be sure that both their product and their procedures conform to the requirements and be able to produce the necessary certificates of compliance on request.
Buyers need to be vigiliant with their purchasing. They should be able to obtain proof that the product they have chosen not only passes the performance tests set by the standard but also that the manufacturer's internal procedures comply with the standard and are independently audited to that effect.
