In 1998, two physicists at the University of Heidelberg, Dr. Steffen Noethe and Matthias Gerspach, made a once-in-a- lifetime discovery. They observed that simple transparent tesafilm^® adhesive tape had the physical qualities to store information and could even be read digitally. Not long after the physicists succeeded in storing data, invisible to the human eye, on simple adhesive tape. To achieve this, they developed an innovative laser marking process called lithographic marking. Little did they know that they had just laid the foundation for a successful company: SCRIBOS.
 
Until this day, this discovery lies at the core of the company’s inimitable security solutions, which are unforgeable due to in-house development and patented production processes and algorithms. SCRIBOS equips each product with a customized security tag, which gives it an unique identity and connects it to the digital world. This enables their customers to effectively fight counterfeiting, overproduction and grey market trading, while on the other hand giving them opportunity for customer interaction, market insights and track & trace.
