How regular you go for shopping or should I
ask how observant you are? Well both the questions are something which you
cannot answer with complete honesty. No worries keep the answer in mind and let
me explain why I asked the question at the first place. Well, if you go to
shopping, by shopping here I mean shopping for any type of thing such as
clothes, equipment, groceries, etc. then you must have noticed or observed that
each and every product has a locking wire in them which is generally called as security
loops.
For clothing,
these loops are used to tag the price band and other tags together with the
garment. In supermarkets, the open
groceries are locked with a plastic wire. In malls,
if you enter a new store with carrying
bags then the zip of these bags are locked together with the same loops. We
never notice these things but this little product has a very vast market
presence that too around us only. Yesterday while entering the mall I had a laptop bag with me and the authorised personnel are not allowed to keep it
with them so they locked the zips and allowed me to roam for hours. And really
when I tried to open it, the lock didn’t even move, I had to cut it with scissors only.
These security loops have
created a secured zone for the shop owners from the shop lifters. These loops are available in various kinds and are
used by the retailers on the basis of their needs. Such as the elastic loops
which easily allow to lock two items together be it clothing or the pair of
shoes, next is the bobbled loops, these loops have bubbles kind of texture
at one side which do not allow the lock to open at any condition, another one
is the thread one which is commonly used by higher brands like levis, etc.
