Will the code affect our product or packaging design?

No. The code is invisible and inscribed submicron into the material itself, so artwork, finish and regulatory dossiers stay exactly as they are.

Can counterfeiters copy the mark?

There is nothing on the surface to scan or photograph. The microstructure code appears only momentarily under vapor and is etched into the substrate, making replication virtually impossible.

How does this fit alongside our existing serialization?

SNOWLEOPARD® sits at the covert Level 2 tier and layers beneath overt features and forensic markers, strengthening rather than replacing existing QR, barcode or track-and-trace programmes.

How is it integrated into production?

Desktop-size systems run inline or off-line, and high-speed web-film systems are fully customizable. Equipment runs 24/7 on ordinary electricity with no inks, lasers, solvents or consumables.

Medicine & Pharmacy

Patient-safety grade authentication for medicines and devices

Falsified medicines circumvent consumer-protection channels and endanger lives. SNOWLEOPARD® marks blisters, vials, devices and cartons with no inks, chemicals or additives.

The Threat

Falsified medicine is a public-health emergency

Counterfeit medicines are produced without regulatory oversight, with wrong doses, wrong actives or no active ingredient at all.

Patient harm

Wrong or absent actives

Falsified product carries incorrect dosages or no active ingredient, causing treatment failure and resistance.

Diversion

Cross-border leakage

Tiered-pricing and donated stock is diverted into higher-value markets, mixing with legitimate supply.

Codes copied

Cloned serialization

Printed 2D codes are photographed and reprinted across thousands of counterfeit packs.

Where The Code Goes

Marked on primary and secondary packaging

Codes are inscribed submicron into packaging materials and device housings, adding a covert layer beneath existing serialization.

Blister lidding and forming film
Vials, ampoules and syringes
Inhaler and autoinjector housings
Bottle closures and seals
Cartons and leaflets
