The New Sentinel Travel Range

Posted on Sep 26th, 2014

The new Sentinel range includes all the essentials needed for safe and convenient travelling in the UK and abroad, incorporating security locks, RFID wallets, luggage scales, travel pillows, sunglasses cases, travel bags and more. Summit’s dedicated design team have created eye catching packaging that gives Sentinel its identity with professional consistent look across the whole product range.

 

Here’s some background information on some key features incorporated in to the Sentinel products:

 

RFID (Radio-Frequency Identification) protector passport and credit card wallet is an innovative new product. It’s an easy access case that prevents illegal scanning of RFID chips embedded in modern day passports and credit cards.

 

RFID chips were introduced to passports to make travelling through airports more efficient and as added verification of the holder’s proof of identity.

Since RFID tags are embedded in passports which contain the written data and a photo of the owner within the passport, the possibility of reading personally-linked information without consent has raised serious privacy concerns. The protective layer within the product inhibits potential hackers from being able to “skim” personal data from a distance using a RFID reader.

 

Other luggage security products in the Sentinel range include carabiner combination locks, TSA padlocks and personal security body wallets for complete protection.

 

Sentinel’s TSA locks have been made to the standards of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). This means TSA combination padlocks can be opened by airport security staff using universal master keys thus avoiding the locks having to be cut or damaged in cases where luggage needs to be physically inspected. Distinguishing between TSA padlocks and ordinary locks is easy as TSA locks have their red symbol embedded on to the product.
