Brand Protection Labels and Anti-Counterfeit Solutions
Protectaseal manufactures custom brand protection labels that combine tamper-evident functions with authentication security — overt features your customers can see, and covert features counterfeiters cannot replicate.
Counterfeiting is not a future risk — it is a present one
Global counterfeit market
The global counterfeit goods market is estimated at over $500 billion annually. Pharmaceutical counterfeits kill. Counterfeit automotive parts cause accidents. Counterfeit cosmetics injure. Counterfeit luxury goods erode brands built over decades.
Every counterfeit product that reaches a consumer bearing your brand is a failure of the system designed to protect them — and your brand is accountable for it, whether or not your own packaging was used. The solution is authentication security that makes genuine products identifiable and counterfeits impossible to pass off.
What brand protection tapes and labels do
Effective brand protection labels combine two authentication layers:
Covert features — invisible or machine-readable security elements embedded in the label that cannot be detected or replicated without specialist knowledge. UV-reactive inks, microtext, taggants, and covert print patterns are covert features used for law enforcement and supply chain investigation.
Overt features — visible security elements that enable consumers, retailers, and customs authorities to verify product authenticity on sight. Custom holograms, colour-shift inks, VOID mechanisms, and branded visual security markers are all overt features.
Protectaseal manufactures labels incorporating both layers, bespoke to your specification, held under NDA, and manufactured exclusively for your brand in our secure UK facility.

More questions about brand protection?
- What is the difference between overt and covert security features?
A tamper-evident security seal is a closure device that provides documented, irrefutable evidence that a package, access point, or container has been opened or interfered with since it was last sealed. The seal cannot be removed and reapplied without the interference being immediately visible
- Can you develop a unique security feature for my brand?
Yes. We develop bespoke security labels with custom overt and covert features, manufactured exclusively for your brand. The specification is held under NDA and manufactured in our secure UK facility, ensuring counterfeiters cannot access or replicate the design.
- Which sectors benefit from brand protection labels?
Brand protection labels are used across the pharmaceutical, cosmetics, luxury goods, automotive OEM, electronics and technology, and FMCG sectors — anywhere counterfeit products pose a risk to consumer safety, brand integrity, or regulatory compliance.
