Every year millions of people are deceived into buying counterfeited food and beverages, posing significant health and safety risks, leading the demand of anti-counterfeit packaging (ACP). Conventional authentication technologies still account for the highest revenue in the global ACP market owing to their economic pricing and ease of application. The growing adoption of track and trace technologies, such as RFID and Barcode, in premium product segments including wines and spirits, would gain significance over the forecast period. Furthermore, barcode enabled product tracking helps in maintaining the supply chain integrity. Emerging tracking technologies, such as DNATrax, exhibit the highest potential in tracking food products with minimal side effects on human healthr. Lack of awareness for authentication solutions among local manufacturers and the lack of affordability of high end technologies (RFID technology) would limit the market growth. However, the awareness campaigns organized by anti-counterfeit trade associations, and regular interventions from government authorities would result in increased penetration of anti-counterfeit technologies.
