At 3S Simons Security Systems, traceability goes anti-counterfeit

The German company 3S Simons Security Systems GmbH has launched a new system solution that combines the counterfeit-proof micro color-code system Secutag, with the logistic benefits of the different traceability codes. Both types of codes are conjointly applicable to the same product, its primary or secondary packaging, label or seal.


The data-matrix-code, for example, can be user-defined and contain information like product code, EAN-code, producer initials, manufacturing date, batch number and serial number. The product-ID is scanned and its content checked and matched with the information provided in the database.


‘The customer has a consistent instrument with which he can integrate, record and verify all data from production to sales’, said Rolf Simons from 3S.
