Growth Factors in the Anti-Counterfeit Packaging Market

● Increasing Consumer Awareness and Demand for Authenticity

Consumers are becoming increasingly aware of the authenticity of products due to particularly the increase in counterfeit goods. The markets that counterfeit are affecting the most include pharmaceuticals, electronics and luxury. Consumers' awareness also create demand for packaging that provides integrity from tampering or being counterfeit. Apple and Pfizer have both moved to QR codes and tamper evident packaging so consumers can verify if the product can be trusted with their mobile app. The consequences of counterfeit goods have been heightened by the proliferation and access to information on digital media, where consumers are educating themselves to the risks of counterfeit goods such as counterfeit medications that create health hazards. To protect their reputation and establish trust with consumers brands are utilizing new anti-counterfeiting technologies, enabling increased market growth.

● Stringent Regulatory Standards and Compliance

Around the world, governments and regulatory bodies are starting to strengthen their regulations against counterfeiting, especially in essential sectors like healthcare and food. Requirements like the EU's Falsified Medicines Directive, which require the application of exact unique identifiers (serialized barcodes) on drug packaging, are driving the regulations around the world to make manufacturers employ complex measures in the space of anti-counterfeiting protections (such as track-and-trace systems) - the systems essentially mandate manufacturers and distributors use modern methods of ensuring their products can be tracked from their first point of entry all the way to their final sale point. An even better example would be India's Drug Authentication and Verification Application (DAVA) which requires pharmaceutical companies to show they can provide barcodes for real time tracking of their drugs. In health safety terms, this type of regulatory pressure not only helps ensure consumer safety, but it encourages the use of the newest packaging solutions in order to expand their market.

● Advancements in Anti-Counterfeit Technologies

Technological innovation is a major factor in the anti-counterfeit packaging industry, with holograms, RFID tags, and blockchain-based tracking options continuing to take hold in the market. The technological innovations enhance the security of packaging for consumers by making the counterfeiting process even that much harder to achieve. Louis Vuitton is extremely protective of its luxury branding and has taken advantage of RFID chips in the product packaging to verify authenticity at retail locations. Tracking technology based on blockchain, like De Beers' diamond-certification tracking, enables brands to supply chain track products in total transparency and see their source. These technological innovations not only reduce a brand's exposure to counterfeiting but also allow brands to glean data about production lines and packaging, allowing all brands to adopt new anti-counterfeiting measures. The growth of more anti-counterfeit department brand and retail initiatives serves to accelerate the growth of the market even faster.

Key Trends in the Anti-Counterfeit Packaging Market

● Rise of Smart Packaging Solutions

"The development of smart packaging, which includes innovations such as NFC (Near Field Communication) and QR codes, is changing the anti-counterfeiting world. These solutions allow consumers and retailers to authenticate a product instantaneously, using today's smartphones. For example, Johnnie Walker used smart bottles, which include an NFC tag, that allow customers to tap the bottle with their smart phone to verify authenticity and also view product information at that instant. Importantly, in addition to enhancing consumer interaction with the product, it also provides brands with alternative tools to defend themselves against counterfeiting. The smart packaging industry will also allow real time supply chain tracking (in some cases), which can eliminate and decrease opportunities for counterfeiters to infiltrate the supply chain. The more adults become digital natives, the more interactive and secure packaging solutions like these will be consumed."

● Integration of Blockchain for Supply Chain Transparency

Blockchain technology is quickly changing the anti-counterfeit packaging landscape by presenting immutable and transparent records of a product's supply chain journey from the point of manufacture to the end consumer. This is particularly important in pharmaceutical and luxury industries where provenance is important. For example, Walmart facilitated a partnership with IBM to allow tracking information for its food supply chain with blockchain backing to show authenticity and safety. Combining anti-counterfeit packaging with blockchain offers proof of authenticity traceability to customers and makes it more difficult for counterfeiters. This trend is gaining steam with the fact that businesses are focusing more on trust and traceability throughout their supply chain. As a result, blockchain will continue to play an important role in the modern anti-counterfeiting and anti-counterfeit packaging landscape.

● Sustainability in Anti-Counterfeit Packaging

The trend of sustainability is starting to have a substantial impact in the anti-counterfeit packaging sector, where brands consider security and environmental responsibility at the same time. As companies explore eco-friendly packaging that can also contain anti-counterfeit features, such as including biodegradable holograms or recyclable tamper evident seals, sustainability measures will likely look to incorporate authentication markers through methods that can identify the product in the bio-waste stream. Companies like Nestlé, for example, have researched sustainable packaging that incorporated embedded authentication markers to not only retain product integrity, but to reduce waste to the environment. This trend with sustainability aligns naturally with consumer preferences for green products and regulatory pressures to become sustainable. By integrating sustainable anti-counterfeit options, and using environmentally friendly substrates, brands can appeal to green consumers and incorporate adequate security features against counterfeiting that will continue to evolve and adapt to reflect corporate responsibility, and still drive new market use.
