ARmark Authentication Technologies LLC — a Glen Rock, Pa.-based provider of custom-designed
marking systems — and England-based Smiths Detection — a supplier of advanced technology security
solutions for a range of civil and military markets — have partnered to introduce IntelliMark, a
product identification system for apparel, consumer goods, food and secure documents.
The IntelliMark system utilizes ARmark’s microscopic ®mark® covert markers, which contain
multiple layers of information in a particle smaller than the diameter of a human hair and are
incorporated into products and then viewed using Smiths Detection’s IdentifyIR® and IlluminatIR™
instruments.
“The IntelliMark system allows for an extension of detection capabilities beyond our optical
detection,” said Jeff Robertson, general manager, ARmark. “Combined with the capability of Smiths
Touchback system, IntelliMark now brings a complete information service to brand owners regarding
their product supply chain.”
