Extensive anti counterfeiting technology used at Bilcare


Research say that about 5% to 7% of all world trade belongs to the field of counterfeiting. It is disappointing to know that besides all the achievement of medical sciences, the industry suffers from the problem of counterfeiting. Many companies are undertaking anti-counterfeiting measures but only some stand successful against the developments that happen with time. Bilcare Technologies believes that medical industry is a very sensitive one as it affects the lives of people. Counterfeiting in this industry, hence, becomes a much bigger problem.

Bilcare fully understands the criticality of the situation and thus, it has offered a full-proof end-to-end solution which is called t he nonClonableID™ technology. Bilcare Technologies is a research and technology leader focused on creating next-generation anti-counterfeiting, security and brand protection solutions for a broad range of industry sectors.

Bilcare Technologies is a business unit of Bilcare Ltd. - an innovation-led solutions provider that partners with the global pharmaceutical and healthcare industry to improve patient healthcare outcomes. With breakthrough research and development in micro and nanotechnology, Bilcare Technologies has developed a first-of-its-kind technology - nonClonableID™. The solution enables products to be authenticated as they move through the supply chain to the end consumer.

Bilcare adopts anti counterfeiting measure


Many companies are undertaking anti-counterfeiting measures but only some stand successful against the developments that happen with time. Bilcare Technologies believes that medical industry is a very sensitive one as it affects the lives of people. Counterfeiting in this industry, hence, becomes a much bigger problem. Counterfeiting has affected the global scenario of trade. They damage the reputation of brand owners and puts consumers in a more vulnerable position. It can also seriously affect the health and safety of the consumers and can substantially reduce the profits of the legitimate players in the market.
In the complex global supply chain, products and information change hands multiple times with each operation open to risk and diversion.Bilcare’s nonClonableID™ provides a base for a secure supply chain. It helps to secure Track-n-Trace, thus helping companies maintain a high level of security, reduce risks  and improve supply chain performance and hence anti counterfeiting.
Bilcare establishes total accountability through the secure supply chain. The chain establishes Brand Security as its first step which further leads to Product Integrity. Product Integrity is followed by Traceability which further leads to e-Pedigree. Such a full-proof secure system by Bilcare is commendable and works well to ensure the safety of consumers. Bilcare has always given preference to the health of its clientele above all other considerations and its thoughtful concept of a nonClonableID™ exemplifies its concern.

Bilcare is defeating counterfeiting by practicing anti counterfeiting


Anti-counterfeiting technological approaches are interdependent for their effectiveness, and integrating them yields a more robust system. In this respect, a combination of overt and covert measures may provide optimal security because they help prevent counterfeiting and reassure end-users. For example, using drug product serialization in combination with electronic pedigree greatly increased the level of security by the ability to verify both the product and the transaction integrity.

Bilcare is familiar with the need of this hour and it is working day and night to ensure that illegal practices like counterfeiting are put on a halt and eventually get abolished form the society, either by adopting anti counterfeiting or something else. nonClonableID is one of its kind technology which has been developed by Bilcare with the help of their R&D in micro and nanotechnology. It is an affordable and secure product to be used with easiness on global platform to fight against the problem of counterfeiting. NonClonableID tags help in implementing the brand security as it uses a unique material matrix encoding to each tag. This tag encoding strategy makes it difficult for counterfeiters to do the cloning of those tags along with the medicines and drugs. It also enables a safe Track-n-Trace system which helps in keeping an eye on the supply chain of the products and end services.

Bilcare is a research and technology based organization which can be called a leader in this sector as it is focusing majorly on developing futuristic anti counterfeiting solutions along with security and brand protection of various industry sectors.

Future of Anti-counterfeit Pharmaceuticals and Cosmetics Packaging: Opportunities and forecasts


The threat of counterfeiting is high in the Pharmaceutical, cosmetics and personal care products. The fact behind the rigorous counterfeiting activities is the presence of high volume low value manufacturing nature of the market. Thus there arises a dire need for anti-counterfeiting measures. Presently, the threats from counterfeiting are increasing across cosmetics and personal care industry as the trends are shifting from premium beauty products to routine skin care products that are sold across local market. Furthermore, the decentralization of pharmaceutical industry in terms of manufacturing and emergence of small scale personal care industry reduces the manufacturers control on the supply chain. Thus, increases the probabilities of counterfeiting. However, the advancement in track and trace technologies, increasing practices of multi-layered authentication technologies have brought revolutionary changes in securing original products and ensuring anti-counterfeiting. Companies with premium range of products are opting for RFID and ePedigree authentication technologies as a measure to combat counterfeiting. However, economic product categories are majorly secured with the conventional authentication technologies such as holograms, inks and dyes. The unaffordable cost structure of track and trace technologies, complex operations involved in tracking the products are the major challenges for the growth of market.

The report covers geographical analysis of North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and LAMEA. North America would continue to lead the market throughout the forecast period. The anti-counterfeit technology market of Europe would rank second in terms of revenue. Pharmaceutical and medical cosmetic companies would be the prominent consumer base for anti-counterfeit industry across Europe. The Asia-pacific, would be the fastest growing region, supplemented by a growing level of awareness for authenticated pharmaceutical drugs, and continuous support from the pharmaceutical companies in the form of awareness campaigns. Competitive landscape of anti-counterfeiting packaging market highlights product launch, acquisition, and collaboration as key strategies. Key players profiled in this report are Alien Technology Corp., Alpvision, Zebra Technologies, Inksure Technologies, Avery Dennison, Flint Group, Impinj Incorporation, Honeywell (Datamax-O'Neil), Authentix Inc. and Sicapa.
