Australia’s Most Popular Security Seals

After supplying Australia with millions of security seals last year, it is time to uncover the country's security seal preferences. We are not going to enlighten you on what your security seal colour preference reveals about your personality, but hopefully, if you are considering what security seal to use next, these will make your short list.


Reflecting on 2024, the standout security seal was the newly launched Truck Seal V2. The new security seal features a seal spacer to reduce the risk of individual seals dislodging during rough handling. Each mat contains 25 seals and is packaged in a handy high quality bag of 100 units per bag, for easy and efficient distribution.   

The selection of the most popular security seals was based on order volume and has been split into the five most common security seal categories. In addition to the video, the article below specifically mentions alternatives in each category that are worth considering.
