Particle-Based Marking
Microscopic particles blended into the product form, together, a distribution unique to that batch. Identity rests not on a single particle but on the whole population, which makes the layer extremely hard to reproduce.
What it solves
A single mark becomes reproducible the moment its nature is understood. The durability of a security layer must therefore rest not on one element but on a whole that is hard to reproduce.
In the particle layer, microscopic particles blended into the product form, together, a distribution unique to that batch. Identity rests on the whole population rather than on any one particle, so imitation requires reproducing the entire distribution.
What it gives you
A quick field check and a deep laboratory confirmation come out of the same structure.
Very hard to copy
Imitation requires reproducing the distribution of every particle, not a single mark.
Two levels of checking
Larger particles are read in the field, smaller ones examined in the laboratory, so you choose the depth the situation needs.
No visible trace on the product
Appearance, performance and use of the product stay exactly as they are.
How it is introduced
In three steps, without rebuilding your existing production flow.
Blended into the product
Particles are mixed evenly into the product material during production.
Read or sampled
A reader serves the field check; a small sample serves the deeper confirmation.
Distribution compared
The measured distribution is matched against the reference recorded in production.
Solutions built on this technology
Frequently asked
Is product performance affected?
Particles are added in trace amounts; appearance, performance and use stay unchanged.
Is field checking possible?
Larger particles are examined in the field with a reader; smaller ones serve laboratory confirmation.
Does every batch differ?
The distribution signature is recorded at batch level, so which batch carries which signature stays in the production record.
What level of security does your product need
Once the risk you face is provided, the depth of the layer is set on our side.
