A Europe-based innovative consumer goods company (revenue < $20M) launched a next-generation product, instantly obsoleting the previous version. Exactly 900 units of the old product—stranded in a third-party warehouse in Delhi, India—were no longer saleable and posed a critical gray-market risk that could undermine the premium positioning of the new launch.
ZeroVir’s mandate: Completely destroy all 100% of the inventory with verifiable proof that no unit could ever re-enter the channel.
ZeroVir.com executed a zero-risk destruction operation.
Solution Delivered
ZeroVir’s team implemented a continuous, geo-tagged, timestamped live video verification protocol. From the moment the warehouse packaging seal was broken under dual-camera supervision, every step was streamed live to the client’s European team:
– All 900 units unloaded and reconciled against serial numbers
– Full disassembly and component separation
– Industrial crushing into unrecoverable black mass
The entire process was recorded in 4K with cryptographic timestamps. A detailed Certificate of Destruction, backed by the complete video archive and photographic evidence, was delivered within 24 hours.
