New multi-level anticounterfeit tracer launched by TraceTag to fight counterfeit in the motor oil and lubricant industries.

Winter 2018. TraceTag successfully launches a new marker concept to support oil and lubricant security across the marketplace, addressing the supply chain challenges that are being increasingly experienced by industry stakeholders:
