Authentication
Commercial-scale counterfeiting costs businesses trillions of dollars each year1. But beyond financial loss, counterfeiting also undermines trust and – in the case of foodstuffs and medicine – poses a real risk to consumer health. The ability to track, verify and maintain security of goods as they make their way through the supply chain is vital. But, due to cost, digital authentication has typically been reserved for high-value items.
Pragmatic supports brand protection every step of the way with FlexICs, our ultra-low-cost, flexible integrated circuits that make it quick and easy to embed intelligence almost anywhere.
Advancing product authentication
Durable and shock resistant, with a lower environmental footprint than traditional chips, FlexICs underpin RFID-based smart solutions to provide item-level traceability – and a compelling opportunity to make widescale, low-cost authentication a reality.
