PRODUCT AUTHENTICATION SOLUTIONS
Production authentication is a key aspect of brand protection. Allowing customers to verify the authenticity of your product protects your company from a loss of trust and reputation, and in turn, brand erosion. In addition, an inferior counterfeit product that is passed off as the genuine item can also cause a direct loss of sales.
The poor quality or performance of pirated products can result in a rise in unsatisfied consumers and complaints, which will only give your brand negative publicity. In worst-case scenarios, a counterfeit product may result in harmful health consequences. For example, a machinery malfunction or a poor consumable product may produce adverse side effects that can cause significant physical damage and harmful health side effects respectively. This negative publicity can be magnified with the widespread adoption of social media, where negative reviews of products can go viral across the country and even cross borders.
PHYSICAL PRODUCT AUTHENTICATION & DIGITAL VERIFICATION
Product authentication solutions can come in the form of a standalone physical authentication or physical authentication with digital online verification check using a smart mobile device.
Examples of physical product authentication include:
- Optical Variable Devices (Labels, Foils, Stripes)

- Security Inks or Paper
- Hidden Images

BENEFITS OF PRODUCT AUTHENTICATION
In a world where counterfeit products are becoming increasingly common, product authentication solutions can provide much-needed peace of mind for consumers. By verifying that a product is genuine, product authentication can help to protect against fraudulent activity and ensure that consumers are getting the quality they expect. In addition, product authentication can help to combat the sale of counterfeit goods, which often funds criminal activity. As such, authentication checks can provide numerous benefits for both consumers and businesses.
When it comes to shopping for expensive or luxury items, or products known for their quality, product authentication can give consumers the assurance they need to make a purchase with confidence. For businesses, it can build trust with customers and protect by staying one step ahead of the counterfeit market. In an increasingly global marketplace, product authentication solutions are essential tools for protecting against fraud and promoting quality control.
IMPACTS FOR BRANDS AND CONSUMERS WITH BRAND PROTECTION IMPLEMENTATION
Counterfeiting creates multiple lasting and costly impacts on the brand and consumer. Brand owners may need to initiate full global recalls on their products if counterfeiting of a particular product becomes widespread. This would not only cost time but also money which is something most businesses don’t want to expend unless necessary. Brand owners never know when an item may suddenly rise in popularity among consumers again after being recalled previously – meaning an investment made now towards product authentication solutions upfront might save lots more at a later stage!
Counterfeiting could lead to potential harm for those who have purchased these products, and even lead them into believing that the company doesn’t care about their well-being. The best case scenario is in fact when consumers are angered after paying full price for fake items; at worst, the result of using counterfeit products like medications is life threatening. This would shed a negative light onto companies who sell authentic products. This is definitely not something brands want to be thought of as or associated with. Product authentication tools like optical variable devices, RFID tags and QR codes can be implemented as a physical and online check, but these do take time for the results to set in.
