MATERUS offers anti-counterfeiting and authentication technologies to protect brands from illicit trade and product piracy.
Holographic and digital authentication features.
Combine physical holograms and digital verification for multilayered protection.
Advanced holographic and UV printing technologies add a critical layer of security to tax stamps and official documents. These visual and invisible features are difficult to replicate, making them ideal for protecting against forgery and tampering. Holograms, microtext, color-shifting inks, and UV-reactive patterns serve as both public and covert verification tools used by enforcement agencies worldwide.
QR-based and blockchain authentication for product tracking.
Enable transparent, tamper-proof tracking with scannable codes and immutable digital records.
Secure QR codes linked to blockchain systems allow products to be traced from origin to destination with full transparency. Each scan logs a transaction on an immutable ledger, creating a verifiable chain of custody. This combination helps brands, regulators, and consumers detect diversion, substitution, or counterfeiting in real time.
Tamper-evident labels to detect unauthorized access.
Protect packaging integrity with visible tamper indications.
Tamper-evident labels provide a critical first line of defense against unauthorized opening or tampering. Designed to break, void, or leave irreversible marks when removed, these labels are ideal for pharmaceuticals, electronics, tax-stamped products, and confidential shipments. They support consumer trust and regulatory compliance by clearly showing when an item has been compromised.
AI-driven market surveillance to detect counterfeit activity.
Use artificial intelligence to monitor, detect, and report suspicious market activity.
Advanced AI algorithms analyze e-commerce platforms, social media, and marketplaces to identify counterfeit listings and brand misuse. By continuously scanning online and offline channels, these systems detect anomalies, flag fake products, and generate actionable insights for enforcement teams. AI-based surveillance helps brand owners protect their reputation and take timely action against IP violations.
We offer layered security strategies including holograms, tamper-evident labels, serialized QR codes, NFC chips, and secure packaging to protect products from counterfeiting and diversion.
Our solutions are widely used in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, alcohol and tobacco, electronics, luxury goods, and any high-value consumer product sectors.
Yes, our solutions are designed to be flexible. We can integrate protection features directly into labels, seals, cartons, or product components without major production changes.
Absolutely. We provide item-level serialization with unique codes and cloud-based traceability systems that allow real-time tracking through the supply chain.
Our holograms feature multiple overt and covert security elements, such as microtext, nano-optics, color-shifting ink, and 3D effects, making them extremely difficult to replicate.
Yes. We can link physical security features to digital platforms via QR, NFC, or app-based verification so consumers can easily confirm authenticity with their smartphones.
All elements are fully customizable — from design and size to material and security level — and tailored to your product aesthetics and protection needs.
Yes, our leading experts in product and brand protection will provide advice or conduct risk assessments at your request.
MATERUS follows a strict handling and shipping protocols with secure logistics, encrypted data transfer, and authentication audits to prevent leakage or misuse.
Minimum order quantities vary depending on the product and technology, but we support both high-volume production and small batch runs for pilot projects or limited editions.
In the field of Security Printing, MATERUS cooperates with leading manufacturers of security products to analyse and promote their technologies globally. The vast experience gained over the years allows MATERUS, as an independent expert, to consolidate the best solutions for consumers of modern printing technology.
