Patient-safety grade authentication for medicines and devices in India
Falsified medicines circumvent consumer-protection channels and endanger lives, and India both manufactures and consumes medicines at vast scale. SNOWLEOPARD® marks blisters, vials, devices and cartons with no inks, chemicals or additives.
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.
Wrong or absent actives
Falsified product carries incorrect dosages or no active ingredient, causing treatment failure and resistance.
Cross-border leakage
Tiered-pricing and donated stock is diverted into higher-value markets, mixing with legitimate supply.
Cloned serialisation
Printed 2D codes are photographed and reprinted across thousands of counterfeit packs.
Marked on primary and secondary packaging
Codes are inscribed submicron into packaging materials and device housings, adding a covert layer beneath existing serialisation.
- Blister lidding and forming film
- Vials, ampoules and syringes
- Inhaler and autoinjector housings
- Bottle closures and seals
- Cartons and leaflets
Verification in pharmacies, clinics and the field
Warm vapour reveals the code where connectivity, scanners and laboratory access cannot be assumed.

Medicine & Pharmacy questions
How is a medicine & pharmacy item authenticated in the field?
A single breath of warm vapour mist reveals the hidden security image, which disappears in seconds as moisture evaporates. No instruments, tools, lights or apps are needed.
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 vapour and is etched into the substrate, making replication virtually impossible.
How does this fit alongside our existing serialisation?
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 programs.
How is it integrated into production?
Desktop-size systems run inline or off-line, and high-speed web-film systems are fully customisable. Equipment runs 24/7 on ordinary electricity with no inks, lasers, solvents or consumables.
