The modern global environment has created an urgent need to trace sensitive materials and to authenticate products.
Sensitive industrial materials pose a serious safety and security threat if diverted from their intended function. For security reasons these materials need to be identified, traced and their stocks reliably monitored.
Counterfeiting poses a threat to sectors of the global economy as it erodes revenues, debases the reputation and integrity of the brand and creates misdirected product liability claims. Often higher quality products or components are replaced with lower quality substitutes and this severely impacts the integrity of the product. In critical applications the result of fitting counterfeit parts can be catastrophic.
Theft of raw materials and bulk products are also on the rise. Copper wires and cables are literally ripped off from walls and dugged out of the ground - causing disruptions and in many cases, loss of lives not to mention the millions lost in stolen materials.
DataTrace DNA
We are confident that DataTrace DNA will soon become a core industrial technology, providing a simple, cheap and reliable means of brand identification and anti-counterfeiting protection.
As it stands, the unique technology is already proving to be arguably the best answer to rising theft and illegal compromise of raw material quality.
Datatrace DNA works by bonding to a product’s molecular structure and is chemically inert, safe and strong enough to persist in any conditions. This allows it to be added to a wide range of materials to ensure product management, manufacturing process and logistics control, inventory management and control, quality assurance management and control, pollution control and for verifying the authenticity of products and materials.
