Pharma Track and Trace Serialization Software

Pharmaceutical counterfeiting can be as small as one person with a printer and barcode scanner mislabeling medications and as large as a criminal organization that stretches across multiple countries. This is why pharma companies need to have an effective and comprehensive solution in order to combat fake medications.
Government regulation is also catching up as the US FDA’s Drug Supply Chain Security Act (Title II of the Drug Quality and Security Act) requires product tracing (electronic and interoperable system) at the package-level by 2023.

Global threat of counterfeit drugs

Highly‐organized drug diversion and counterfeiting schemes involve various illicit activities including the adulteration, re‐labeling, theft, illegal importation and improper storage of prescription drugs.

The perpetrators are also found working in various jobs along the pharmaceutical supply chain: pharmacists, wholesalers, printers, distributors, etc.

Use Cases

Holographic Labels: Hong Kong Pharmaceutical Brand

Problem

An established pharma brand in Hong Kong has decided to launch for the first time a series of their strongest-selling products in China. Entering this new market, the management was aware that they are exposing themselves to the following material and immaterial risks:
Counterfeiting: Without a brand protection device, it will be difficult to differentiate between original and fake products. Pilferage / Package Tampering: The product package might be opened before purchase and the original content be exchanged or diluted.

Solution

In order to ensure their customers, as well as their own staff, and potentially law enforcement officers will be able to differentiate the original product from counterfeits, they asked NanoMatriX to help with a sophisticated brand protection label.
To prevent pilferage or product tampering, the security label has been designed so that it can be pasted across the edge of the package and the package lid. Additional security features applied at the substrate and the design elements will make sure that unauthorized opening of the package will definitely be noticed.

Results

Implementing the anti-counterfeiting and tamper-proofing solutions, the pharmaceutical brand confidently launched in China. The security hologram with tamper evidence will be able thwart pilferage and counterfeiting. In the next phase, they will consider adding unique QR codes for consumer engagement.
