PAS / ISO 17712 CERTIFICATION
ISO 17712 establishes uniform procedures for the classification, acceptance, and withdrawal of acceptance of mechanical freight container seals. ISO 17712:2013 is not applicable to special-purpose seals, such as fibre-optic and sophisticated electronic seals.
ISO 17712:2013 is a globally accepted standard for the performance of freight container mechanical seals. USCA Certifications provides ISO 17712 certification for mechanical seals which is acceptable for securing freight containers in international commerce.
ISO 17712 addresses all types of security seals usable on maritime containers. Since many other industries use the same seals, members of those industries also may choose to adopt ISO 17712.
Compliance with ISO 17712
Compliance with ISO 17712 requires independent confirmation in three areas:
- Physical testing to determine a seal's classification for physical strength.
- Process auditing of supplier security-related business processes.
- Physical testing that earns a "Pass" grade for evidence of tampering.
ISO 17712 Seal Classification
ISO 17712 defines three types of classes of seal strength or barrier capacity:
- “I” – Indicative
- “S” – Security
- “H” – High Security
USCA Certifications certification process involves testing to determine a seal’s physical strength, auditing of manufacturer’s security-related business processes, and inspection of seal design and construction to check tamper-indicative features that generate tell-tale evidence of tampering.
