The International Market for Brand Protection Solutions (2nd Edition)
![](/report_cover/3354/international_market_4_brand_protection_solutions_en.gif)
This report has been researched and written by Vandagraf International Limited in association with the Product & Image Security Foundation.
These estimates were then aggregated up to a grand total to reveal a credible estimate of $610 billion for the overall financial losses resulting from product related crime in 2006.
Product related crime continues to grow at an estimated 7% year on year, fuelled primarily by trade with China, enabled increasingly by the internet as well as a variety of other driving forces.
The market for brand protection solutions, however, still only amounts to some $3.7 billion (equivalent to only around 0.6% of the worldwide cost of product related crime).
This is considered be a surprisingly low level of market penetration and segments of the brand protection business looks poised for significant growth over the next few years.
Major opportunities (and also threats) exist for companies operating in the brand protection field:
Pro-active involvement of packaging / labels companies in security issues and value added security products is increasing and those that approach the problem in an appropriate manner stand to prosper over the next years.
The report contains sections on each of the 20 plus end-user vertical markets (as identified by the World Customs Organisation listing) adding up to around 100 individual product categories in total.
For each market there is an evaluation of the requirements and constraints that apply to such usage. In each case, quantitative estimates of financial losses due to counterfeiting, piracy, tampering and theft have also been made, together with forecasts to 2011.
The report also profiles nearly 200 brand protection solution providers (including numerous new entrants in the sector).
