Inexto
Innovative Solutions for Safeguarding Pharmaceutical Supply Chain

A mid the backdrop of groundbreaking pharmaceutical innovation lurks a network of counterfeit drugs, infiltrating various trusted pharmacies and, subsequently, patients’ medicine cabinets. Dissemination of these unregulated medicines is exhibiting an upward trajectory, constituting a significant threat to public health. This perilous surge is propelled by the rise of digital channels facilitating the sale and purchase of consumer goods, streamlined and cheap logistics, and ease of deceiving consumers.

While many initiatives and efforts at the government and industry levels have been put in place to combat counterfeit drugs, they continue to find their way into pharmaceutical supply chains, putting the industry and patients in a tough spot.

Inexto, a Swiss company, is ideally positioned to help secure the pharmaceutical supply chain while safeguarding business owners and consumers. Driven by this mission since its inception, it has developed a suite of innovative solutions that empower manufacturers and governments to fight all illicit trade activities, such as counterfeiting and product diversions. As a guardian of authenticity and transparency in pharmaceutical supply chains, its solutions cover every aspect of the process, like authentication, secure serialization, and production volume verification.

“Our solutions are easy to use and non-cloneable, allowing clients to combat the counterfeiting at different levels of supply chains,” says Eric Jones, director of business development, Inexto.

Inexto’s portfolio encompasses Inextrust, Inextend, Inextor, Inextrace, Inextrack, Inexpress, and Inextimate—all built with precision to efficiently combat counterfeiting pharmaceuticals. These tools are leveraged by various governments, manufacturers, retailers, and consumers to ensure product authenticity and integrity. Inextrust is Inexto’s signature solution that imprints stateof-the-art fingerprint technology with their existing product logos and texts.

Consumers, internal staff, and law enforcement agencies can verify a product’s authenticity and provide information on its origin by scanning codes with the Inextrust application. Clients can confirm the product’s provenance of trust without any additional scanning devices or a Wi-Fi connection.

Its Inextend is a mobile, cloud-connected solution built to simplify inventory management and ensure integrity of goods movement in warehouses. It complies with GS1/ISO EPCIS standards and offers numerous features, such as inventory tracking, disaggregation, and reaggregation in product movement. Inextor is a method of encrypting the serialization code on a product or packaging. It’s a ‘product passport’ or ‘identity card’ that uses innovative encryption methods by combining coding technology and algorithms to securely generate codes. These easy-to-verify codes are impossible to hack or replicate, ensuring utmost safety. Its Inextrace is a mobile application that helps scan products’ bar codes to enable easy access to the manufacturing details and operational instructions. It serves as a central tracking solution, providing visibility into the supply chain events from product manufacturing to the final point of sale. It is adept at ensuring product integrity and traceability from individual units to the highest packaging levels, such as containers and pallets.

Inexto also offers Inexpress that scans serialized code in each container to allow end consumers and retailers to easily identify the medicines inside without opening them. Inextimate, on the other hand, is a tamper-proof solution for capturing biometric signatures of materials comprising the product and integrates this information within the Inextor codes.

The easy-to-use, scalable, and tamper-proof features of its technology are instrumental in aiding governments, manufacturers, and end consumers to remain indispensable in their ongoing fight against counterfeit products. As the global marketplace evolves, Inexto remains at the forefront of offering purpose-built solutions that empower clients to stay safe and secure from the issues of tomorrow, thanks to its approach rooted in customer-centricity and continuous innovation.
