Technology

Physically unclonable identifiers - optically verifiable, easy to integrate.
Densec ID’s core technology is the dendritic identifier (DI) - a physical pattern formed through a fluid-based process known as Saffman-Taylor instability. Each identifier is unique, impossible to replicate, and created directly on the component it secures.
Unlike traditional tagging methods, the DI:
-
Cannot be cloned, even by the original manufacturer
-
Is optically verifiable, requiring no power, no contact, and no software on the chip
-
Integrates into standard packaging or labeling workflows
-
Supports traceability from fabrication to system integration and deployment
The DI is supported by a secure, cloud-linked database for verification, traceability, and quality assurance, with no added complexity for production teams.
The technology is protected by 18 U.S. and European patents and is designed to meet the needs of manufacturers building secure, transparent supply chains.
