Authentication and Traceability Solutions for Pharmaceutical and Healthcare Products
Microtrace delivers covert security solutions that help pharmaceutical and healthcare companies protect high-value products, enable traceability, and meet regulatory requirements. From product packaging to connected consumables, we support authentication across the entire lifecycle of sensitive healthcare products.
Designed for Regulated Supply Chains
Pharmaceutical and healthcare products move through complex, global, and tightly regulated channels. Microtrace technologies provide reliable authentication, counterfeit deterrence, and field-level verification designed for integration into regulated production and supply-chain environments.
Applications include:
- Prescription and OTC medications
- Medical devices and diagnostic equipment
- Device-connected consumables like test cartridges and filters
- Serialized and tamper-evident packaging and documentation
Our solutions enable secure traceability across geographies and product types, with systems designed for offline use and regulatory compliance.
Secure the Device–Consumable Ecosystem
Microtrace’s Summit™ Authentication Platform provides integrated product authentication for device-driven healthcare systems. By combining covert taggants, encrypted identifiers, device-integrated detection, AI classification, and analytics, Summit™ enables devices to verify authorized consumables, support product-specific functionality, and detect substitution or tampering.
- Detect counterfeit or unauthorized consumables
- Enable optional usage tracking and device-level access control
- Support product performance and patient safety
- Validate in the field or integrate into connected devices
