Every item is placed into a tamper-evident serialized security pouch. The unique alphanumeric seal number is assigned directly to the client's file and confirmed prior to transit, preventing any unauthorized physical handling.

Upon delivery at our secure facility, parcels are unsealed inside a monitored intake bay under continuous dual-custody high-definition recording. Two credentialed specialists verify contents, examine serial hallmarks, and conduct non-destructive testing.

Following authentication, your collateral is resealed in an individual serialized container and deposited into Underwriters Laboratories Class 3 vaults. Depository vaults maintain 24/7 armed monitoring, biometric time locks, and climate regulation (68°F / 45% humidity).
