Track-And-Trace

Security and track-and-trace solutions are often layered on packaging in customer-unique (and even product-unique) applications, especially for high-value goods. Many of the available options can easily be incorporated into the stock-in-trade of package and label production companies.

Many features can be engineered into a pressure-sensitive label substrate, such as two- or three-dimensional customer-exclusive 'watermarks'; UV- or IR-light-detectable nylon fibers of a specific length or color; metal strips or fragments, polyester security threads, thermochromic threads, and micro-marked fibers—invisible to the naked eye.
