Combating illegal activities
With the increasing globalisation of trade, counterfeiting is becoming ever more widespread and disruptive.
Parallel trading can also have major consequences, undermining the brand owners control and contributing to dilution of brand value. Duty evasion causes authorities to lose vast sums in tax revenues due to these illegal activities. Huge profits can be made by criminal groups, who may use the revenues gained to fund a wide range of further criminal activities.

Multi level approach
Our unique approach of offering multi-level, tailored solutions to any application, coupled with effective training, technical support, and sustained after-sales services means our solutions are easy to implement, and are appropriate to the customers’ exact needs.
