Keeping it real: counterfeit detection concentrate safeguards medical devices

Teknor Color Division has launched new colour concentrates with exceedingly small traces of an anti-counterfeit marker or taggant.

This will enable plastics manufacturers to ensure product safety, supply chain integrity and brand reputation with no effect on colour quality or product performance.   

DeTek functional colour concentrates help brand owners protect against seemingly identical fake products that lack the identifying marker. Such products may damage brand identity by compromising safety, purity, or reliability. DeTek concentrates can also help provide assurance to medical device OEMs that use components from multiple contractors for regulated or high-specification applications.
