Your physical shield against counterfeits

aegis is an advanced security varnish that provides products with a non-visible, digital feature. This physical shield makes your products counterfeit-proof and strengthens trust in your brand.

What is aegis?

More Than Just a Varnish Plate

Aegis is no ordinary coating; it's an intelligent security layer that transforms any product into a digitally verifiable asset. The process is simple for the user but backed by an advanced system designed to protect against even the most sophisticated counterfeiting attempts.

The essential Layer

The core of aegis's power lies in its unique, microscopic security feature. During the printing process, an advanced security varnish is applied, embedding a distinct digital fingerprint that is invisible to the naked eye. Each application creates an un-copyable signature, making every single item an authentic original and virtually impossible to counterfeit.

  • Invisible Digital Signature: The varnish contains a digital fingerprint that is not visible to the naked eye.

  • Diverse Security Features: These features can range from a special molecular structure to a unique pattern of micro-dots.

  • Un-copyable Signature: Each application creates an un-copyable signature that makes it impossible for counterfeiters to replicate.

Verifying with a verification app - ava

The app uses the device's camera to scan the hidden security features within the aegis coating. The captured data is instantly compared with a secure, cloud-based database of authentic signatures.

 

The Result: Absolute Trust

Within fractions of a second, the user receives a clear verdict: "Authentic" or "Suspect of Counterfeiting." This turns a complex verification into a simple, reliable process that instantly restores trust between the brand and the customer.

Frequently asked questions

Handling is uncomplicated, as aegis varnish plates are used just like standard varnish plates. This ensures that neither production speed nor quality are compromised.

The main advantage is the tamper-proof embedding of sensitive data directly in the printing process, without affecting existing workflows or production speed. This makes aegis a robust and seamlessly integrated protection solution.

aegis is ideal for applications that require a high level of protection, such as branded packaging, event tickets, or pharmaceutical folding cartons.
