The anti-counterfeiting products on the market can be roughly divided into five generations of products from the perspective of technical characteristics and functional evolution:
1. The first generation of products - products represented by laser tags .
Consumers also do not have the ability to identify the authenticity of labels, and labels are easy to forge. In the absence of comparability, it is difficult to confirm a 60% fake and a 100% genuine product; secondly, there are temperature-changing labels, which consumers Although easy to identify, it is also easy to counterfeit. Also evolving at the same time are nuclear track anti-counterfeiting and so on.
2. The second generation product - query-type digital anti-counterfeiting label.
Consumers can check the authenticity of digital labels through phone calls, text messages, and the Internet. However, since the anti-counterfeiting numbers are only printed on the surface of the paper, they themselves can be easily counterfeited.
3. The third generation product - textured anti-counterfeiting label.
Texture anti-counterfeiting is an anti-counterfeiting technology that uses the inherent markings of the packaging material itself as anti-counterfeiting identification marks. Consumers can check files and identify authenticity through the Internet, fax, and telephone. The random principle increases the difficulty of counterfeiting.
4. The fourth generation product - security thread anti-counterfeiting paper technology and its application products, including various product anti-counterfeiting instructions and certificates, anti-counterfeiting bottle stickers, anti-counterfeiting labels, etc. Consumers can easily identify authenticity by identifying whether the security thread is embedded in the middle of the paper. The threshold for counterfeiting of this type of anti-counterfeiting technology product is extremely high, and it cannot be counterfeited by printing. It is truly "easy to identify and difficult to counterfeit." Therefore, it is the most effective anti-counterfeiting technology product at present and for a long time to come.
5. The fifth generation product - wireless anti-counterfeiting technology - mobile Internet anti-counterfeiting technology. By attaching anti-counterfeiting labels that are automatically identified by mobile phones to products and packaging, consumers can use their mobile phones to automatically scan for authenticity identification. When combined with texture anti-counterfeiting and security thread anti-counterfeiting, consumers will truly feel at ease and feel comfortable shopping.
An anti-counterfeiting code only corresponds to a specific product. The anti-counterfeiting code cannot be reused. The inspected product will be given a unique anti-counterfeiting code by the 12315 Consumer Association, and it can only be used. Used once by user.
If an unscrupulous merchant prints an anti-counterfeiting code casually, the user will not be able to find the anti-counterfeiting code when searching on the 12315 official website, or the type of product found does not match, and consumers will know this. The merchandise is counterfeit.
If an unscrupulous merchant buys a batch of genuine goods, obtains some of the anti-counterfeiting codes, and starts mass production, then the anti-counterfeiting codes will be repeated. When a consumer successfully queries, others will again Enter the same anti-counterfeiting code query, and it will appear that this anti-counterfeiting code has been used. If you have just scratched off the anti-counterfeiting coating and entered it unsuccessfully, then the product is most likely fake. Therefore, forgery using this method will be detected quickly. Moreover, unscrupulous merchants will not spend special costs to purchase genuine products to obtain anti-counterfeiting codes.
