Excise-grade covert marking for a heavily taxed channel
Illicit vapes and cigarettes cost governments billions in duty and expose consumers to untested formulations. SNOWLEOPARD® marks devices, pods and cartons invisibly for instant field checks.
Illicit trade moves faster than tax stamps
Duty stamps and printed codes are copied at scale, and enforcement teams need to make decisions on the spot without laboratory support.
Counterfeit duty stamps
Printed stamps and serialized codes are reproduced cheaply, letting untaxed product pass as compliant.
Unregulated formulations
Counterfeit pods bypass testing entirely, creating public-health exposure that lands on the legitimate brand.
Cloned and refilled pods
Empty branded pods are refilled with unknown liquid and resold through convenience and online channels.
Marked on the device, the pod and the carton
A single non-contact process applies indelible codes to plastics and films at line speed, with no inks, solvents or consumables to manage.
- Device housings and mouthpieces
- Pod and cartridge bodies
- Blister and flow-wrap film

Enforcement decisions made at the point of inspection
Officers and retailers confirm legitimate stock with a breath, with no reader to procure, calibrate or keep charged.
