Luxury & Consumer Goods

Luxury and consumer goods industries are marketing intensive and particularly vulnerable to counterfeiting due to the high value and perceived exclusivity of the products. Luxury Brands have also recently engaged into the rising NFT trend.  SEALSQ is working with  luxury brands to transition their products into NFTs (non-fungible tokens) as distinctive digital assets on the blockchain.

The rise of NFTs in Luxury

NFTs are unique digital tokens symbolizing ownership or authentication of individual items. Each NFT is non-interchangeable, and has the potential to represent a wide range of assets from digital art to tangible luxury goods.
 
Most NFTs are rooted in platforms such as Ethereum, though others like Binance Smart Chain are also facilitating NFT transactions. These blockchains provide each NFT with a unique identity and ownership detail, eliminating chances of unauthorized duplications.

NFC chips create a Phy-Gital Bridge

SEALSQ offers a bridge between physical luxury goods and the digital universe. . It allows luxury brands to craft indelible NFTs  linked to a physical counterpart, meeting the digital inclinations of modern consumers.

Specifically, SEALSQ's VaultIC155 NFC chip can be incorporated into luxury items, ensuring secure authentication with an NFC reader.
