OpticalShield says security bag logs heat and intrusion events in wine shipments

The company says its patented Smart Security Bag records timestamped temperature and tampering events while cargo remains sealed, with the log readable by phone.

On 30 October 2026, OpticalShield described its patented Smart Security Bag for wine and spirits shipments. According to the company, the sealed bag continuously records temperature and intrusion events, attaching a timestamp to each entry.1

At handoff, pressing a button provides a red or green result, the company says. If the result is red, a phone can read the complete event log, allowing distributors and retailers to identify when overheating occurred and infer the corresponding stage of the journey. OpticalShield presents the record as a way to assess disputed shipping claims.1
