Sterilization box seal device

A sterilization box seal device comprising:

• a shaft, a support part, and a planar tab, the shaft being slidable into a closure device of a sterilization box, the support part being attached to a proximal end of the shaft, said support part comprising a locking element capable of irreversibly cooperating with and attaching to a distal end of the shaft to form therewith a closed loop preventing the closure device from opening, said locking element disposed at a distal end of an arm pivotably coupled to the support part, said planar tab being selectively detachable from said support part such that said planar tab is connected to said support part in a first condition and detached from said support part in a second condition, said planar tab receiving a readable identification label on an outer surface thereof, opposite the support part, and retaining said readable identification label thereon when said planar tab is in said first condition and when said planar tab is in said second condition, said planar tab foldable on the support part, such that said planar tab covers said support part by folding along a hinge-forming line and thus exposing the outer surface of said planar tab,
• wherein said closed loop prevents the closure device from opening when said planar tab is in said first condition and when said planar tab is in said second condition such that said planar tab is not necessary for preventing the closure device from opening and, wherein the planar tab comprises an aperture corresponding, when folded, to the location where the shaft distal end and the locking element mutually lock.
