Market Dynamics

Growing Incidence of Counterfeiting

The International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) estimates that counterfeiting and piracy will cost the global economy US$4.2 trillion and put 5.4 million legitimate jobs at risk by 2022. Furthermore, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that about 10% of medicines in low- and middle-income countries are counterfeit.

Counterfeit luxury products account for a substantial portion of the overall counterfeiting market. Thus, the growing incidence of counterfeiting across industries has created a strong demand for effective anti-counterfeit packaging solutions.

Companies are also investing to boost the anti-counterfeit packaging market. For instance, in January 2021, NeuroTags came up with foolproof anti-counterfeiting solutions and created powerful digital channels of contact between brands and their customers. The company’s Advanced Warranty Solution turns physical warranty cards into a digital platform where consumers can search the QR code on their devices and get their warranty cards. Consumers do not need to keep the actual warranty card/invoice, so brands get customer data.

Technological Advancements

Technological advancements have played a crucial role in boosting the anti-counterfeit packaging market by offering innovative solutions that enhance security and authentication. One significant technological advancement that has revolutionized anti-counterfeit packaging is the implementation of track and trace systems. These systems enable companies to monitor and trace the movement of products throughout the supply chain, from manufacturing to the end consumer.

The benefits of track and trace systems include supply chain visibility and transparency, allowing companies to identify any deviations or discrepancies in the product's journey. It helps detect and prevent counterfeit products from entering the market. Furthermore, these systems allow end consumers to authenticate the products they purchase. By scanning the unique codes using their smartphones or dedicated applications, consumers can access product information, verify its authenticity, and ensure it has not been tampered with.

High Packaging Cost

Implementing anti-counterfeit packaging solutions often involves additional costs, including research and development, equipment, materials, and implementation. For instance, developing effective anti-counterfeit packaging solutions requires significant research and development efforts.

Companies invest resources in designing and testing various technologies, materials, and methods to ensure the security and authenticity of their products. These R&D costs can be substantial and contribute to the overall expense of anti-counterfeit packaging, hampering the market growth.

Furthermore, anti-counterfeit packaging often involves using specialized materials, coatings, or inks with unique properties for authentication and security purposes. These materials may be more expensive than traditional packaging materials. Using such specialized materials contributes to the overall cost of anti-counterfeit packaging.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

As estimated by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), due to the decline in the manufacturing sector coupled with the factory shutdown, the COVID-19 outbreak could cause global FDI to shrink by 5 percent -15 percent. The adverse effects of COVID-19 on FDI investments in the oil, automotive, and airline industries are expected to be high.

The research on the global manufacturing industry effect of COVID-19 is divided into vehicles, food & beverage, chemicals, machinery, electrical and electronics, pharmaceutical and medical devices, and others. Thus, a decline in manufacturing activities has severely affected the anti-counterfeit packaging market's growth, particularly in 2020, owing to distribution in supply chain management and shut of various manufacturing units across different sectors of the globe.

Segment Analysis

The Global Anti-Counterfeit Packaging Market is segmented based on technology, end-user and region.

Rising Demand For Independent Of Database And User-Friendly Anti-Counterfeiting Solutions
