Brand protection with anti-counterfeting resins, percept technologies with TPEs
Proliferation of counterfeit goods spreads mayhem in businesses globally. Counterfeit and pirated goods are estimated to drain US$1 trillion from the global economy and rob more than 2.5 million people of legitimate jobs worldwide, as per Paris-based International Chamber of Commerce. New developments meets the needs of the packaging industry for brand protection with anti-counterfeiting resins, percept technologies, taggants, etc. A taggant can mean a radio frequency microchip used in automated identification and data capture. In such cases, electronic devices use radio waves to track and identify items, such as pharmaceutical products, by assigning individual serial numbers to the containers holding each product. This technology may prevent the diversion or counterfeiting of drugs by allowing wholesalers and pharmacists to determine the identity and dosage of individual products. A taggant is also a chemical or physical marker added to materials to allow various forms of testing.
