Authenticate luxury goods in India without touching the design
Superfakes now replicate stitching, hardware and packaging, and they reach Indian buyers through the same online channels as the genuine article. SNOWLEOPARD® hides a code inside the product's own materials, so authentication never depends on a tag that can be swapped.
Superfakes have outpaced visual inspection
When replicas copy every visible cue, trained authenticators disagree — and resale platforms carry the liability.
Visually identical replicas
Hardware, logos and serial plates are reproduced to a standard that defeats side-by-side visual comparison.
Disputed authentication
Secondary marketplaces need objective proof, not opinion, before accepting or listing a high-value item.
Factory grey goods
Unauthorised overruns leave licensed facilities with genuine materials and no way to distinguish them.
Inside the hardware, trims and linings
Codes are etched submicron into metal and polymer components — invisible to the customer, permanent through the product's life.
- Zip pulls, clasps and buckles
- Logo plates and rivets
- Sunglass frames and temples
- Sole plates and shank hardware
- Authenticity cards and dust bag tags
Objective proof at resale and repair
A breath reveals the covert mark, giving boutiques, resale platforms and repair centres a definitive answer.

Fashion & Accessories questions
How is a fashion & accessories 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.
