The global anti-counterfeit packaging market will witness a significant growth during the forecast period. Most companies in the F&B, pharmaceutical, and automotive industries are adopting traceability and authentication systems to ensure the original quality and consistency of their products. Since food products are directly related to consumer health, they need to reach the consumer in a fresh and consumable form.Counterfeit food products can cause many food-borne diseases, which can even result in the death of the consumer. The government in many nations has made it mandatory for manufacturers and retailers to install traceability and authentication systems in order to deliver authentic products to consumers.In addition, the introduction of new devices for traceability and authentication is leading to intense competition in the global anti-counterfeit packaging market. In developed countries, the adoption rate of these systems and solutions is increasing as a result of rapid growth of different industries, which has necessitated effective tracking and

tracing of products. Some countries in APAC will witness increased use of these traceability and authentication systems, specifically in the retail sector, during the forecast period.
