With a vision to ensure safety and sanctity of their animal health medications, a global pharmaceutical and biotech manufacturer has selected and implemented Xyntek and Antares serialization technology to protect their animal health brand.

The product, which was serialized and aggregated by the Xyntek and Antares technology, is an animal medication used to prevent fleas and ticks in household pets.

The technology features the Antares Tracking System (ATS) software platform and pre-engineered Print & Check modules. The technology not only serializes at the smallest unit of sale, but also provides several layers of aggregation and serialization at the bundle/tray, and case.

The serialization technology enables the animal health medication maker to efficiently and reliably track and trace their animal care product through the entire supply chain and ensures that only authentic and quality product will reach its consumers. To date, there have been a handful of instances where diverged or expired product has been identified in the market place. Using the technology, the company can track where these packages originated from and where they have shipped to, and as a result remove bad and diverted products from the shelves, and protect their consumers and brand image.
