    The enhancement of the original content within the package with another similar range of low quality without evidence is the most common problem of the world. The danger in such counterfeit attempts is seriously understood by not just developing countries but also by developed countries as well. Counterfeit contents may lead to the death of people by damaging them and especially engine oil, fuel, cooking oil, fruits, tomato paste, milk etc. Tamper evidence (TE) in industrial containers becomes more critical with the improvement of forgery techniques by unauthorized persons. However, although security measures have been taken against unauthorized persons, an unauthorized person who makes extra-special efforts to remove the original closure mechanism can access the contents of the package before the first user without visible evidence. The user spending a lot of money to buy high-quality product wants to know whether he/she uses the original content or not. Therefore, a closure mechanism that prevents unauthorized persons from removing the actual closure mechanism without any damage to the closure mechanism, or, for such industrial containers, the container piercing mechanism can be used. In this study, a closure mechanism has been developed that prevents unauthorized persons from removing the original closure mechanism without damaging the closure mechanism. Analyzes regarding the first opening guarantee of the relevant closure mechanism have been created. Thus, it is proved that closure mechanism could not be reused in case of any opening due to the permanent deformation it is achieved in the designed closure mechanism.
