Many companies have not yet really realized that counterfeiting is something that happens to their products, it is a global problem that affects many markets, all products can be subject to it and all links in the chain are affected, from distribution to retail and of course the end users.

Piracy and counterfeiting of consumer goods cause US$1.6 trillion in losses worldwide each year and eliminate some three million jobs (2019 data).

Products such as medicines, software, electronics, perfumes, liquors, wines, clothing, food, etc., are subject to large numbers of counterfeits.

Brand protection is more than protecting the product. Manufacturers lose revenue, profits and brand loyalty, distributors also lose by not being able to compete with illegal products at low prices, governments stop collecting taxes and jobs disappear. Finally, consumers do not get the quality of the product they pay for.

Printing with invisible thermo-inkjet inks that fluoresce under ultraviolet light in different colors when illuminated by an ultraviolet light lamp is currently the best system for brand protection and fraud prevention. We have invisible inks with blue and red reaction for porous and non-porous substrates
