Cigarette safe: Store tobacco products securely

Cigarettes are a preferred target for retail theft: high value in a small space, easy to resell, and difficult to trace. A cigarette safe stores the daily stock and reserve, keeping them secure after closing time. Our Zibo series models are tested according to EN 14450 safety level S1 and are available in three sizes, up to a full-height cabinet at 195 centimeters. For higher value goods, please contact us so we can look at safes according to EN 1143-1 together.

For cigarettes: Certified safes with high volume

Whether at a gas station, supermarket, or kiosk, cigarettes should be stored in at least a lightweight safe. Due to rising cigarette prices, they have long been considered a sought-after target for theft. They are easy to transport, often easily accessible, and can be easily sold on the black market.

Bremer Tresor, in cooperation with several insurance companies, has developed a security concept for the storage of cigarettes. We recommend storing them in a steel cabinet that is certified to at least security level S1 according to EN 14450.

Are cigarettes a target for theft?

Definitely yes. Cigarettes are considered a popular target for theft. They are easy to transport and often easily accessible. Furthermore, the motivation increases every year due to rising prices and the resulting value on the black market. In January 2021, for example, a supermarket in Wegscheid was burglarized. In addition to cash, the perpetrators stole cigarettes worth more than 25,000 euros (Source: Wochenblatt).
