Intelligent Packaging Technology for Authentication and Consumer Engagement
Microtrace’s patented Summit™ Authentication Platform powers real-time product identification, authentication, traceability, and consumer insight. Whether confirming genuine OEM consumables or flagging unauthorized or counterfeit products, Summit delivers instant, accurate validation in any environment, with or without connectivity.
One Platform. Total Security.
Summit integrates unique identifiers, detection systems, and analytics into a cohesive solution engineered to eliminate vulnerabilities that weaken other anti-counterfeiting systems.
Every component is designed and optimized in-house by Microtrace scientists and engineers to ensure accuracy, performance, and reliability from manufacturing to market.
This fully optimized platform combines taggant chemistry, application engineering, detection, and analytics in a fully integrated system that prevents the security gaps competitors and counterfeiters attempt to exploit.
System Components
Unique Identifier
A secure signature combining physical and digital elements to provide SKU-level identification and authentication.
Taggant Signature
