Here at FTS we understand your needs when it comes to the seizure of telecoms equipment, which is why we have specialist packaging which contributes to ensuring that the intergrity of an exhibit is maintained whilst it is transported from the scene to our forensic engineers.

The way in which an exhibit is seized and handled can effect the intergity of the exhibit and even the amount of evidence that can be retrieved, which is why FTS run Telecoms training courses, but also why we supply specialist packaging.

FTS can provide Tamper Proof Exhibit Boxes, flat packed cardboard boxes which are easily folded to provide sturdy protection for your exhibit, these are supplied with exhibit tags to secure the exhibit.

In addition FTS provide Faraday Bags, which are radio screened foil bags to protect active exhibits and prevent the ingress of new data. FTS recommend the use of these in urgent cases.

If you would like further information about our specialsit packaging please do hesitate to contact FTS HQ on 01732 459 811 or email enquiries@ForensicTS.co.uk
