Business risks

What's at stake for electronics leaders.

Safety liability

Counterfeit batteries and chargers cause fires and regulator sanctions.

Grey-market erosion

Cross-border diverted stock breaks regional pricing and MSRP discipline.

Warranty fraud

Fake units driving costly service claims OEMs cannot decline without proof.

Accessory cannibalisation

Cheap fakes on accessories destroy a high-margin category.

How One Trust solves it

One device identity across manufacture, retail and warranty.

NBR on the device (or serial plate), the box and the accessories. Consumers scan to activate warranty, retailers scan to verify authorised stock, and OEMs see every diversion pattern in real time.

Device-level NBR

Direct-part-mark, label and packaging variants.

Region-locked warranty

Warranty activates only within authorised territory.

Diversion detection

Geo-fenced scans surface parallel imports in days.

Accessory protection

Chargers, cables, earbuds — all authenticated.

Anti-tamper packaging

Seals bound to the same NBR identity.

Channel analytics

Scan distributions by SKU × region × retailer.

Workflow

Deployment, end to end.

  1. 01

    Mint NBR identity

    Every SKU/lot receives a Non-Reproducible Barcode with cryptographic anchor at print time.

  2. 02

    Print & apply

    Codes are printed inline at your existing lines — no new hardware, no line slowdown.

  3. 03

    Serialize & aggregate

    Unit → carton → pallet parent-child hierarchy captured across your network.

  4. 04

    Authenticate in the field

    Consumers, retailers, inspectors and partners scan with any smartphone camera.

  5. 05

    Act on intelligence

    Real-time alerts, geo heatmaps and BI feeds flow to your brand-protection team.
