Authenticity - how to prove and secure it: One of the biggest challenges in the fashion industry

Counterfeiting is one of the biggest challenges for the fashion industry, negatively impacting brand reputation and consumer experiences. The counterfeit market is valued at approximately €2.75 trillion, representing a threefold increase since 2013. Well-known brands like Nike, Gucci, and Louis Vuitton often face this issue, which adversely affects their profits and image. Consumers are often disappointed when the products they purchase do not meet the quality and durability standards of genuine items.

Faced with these challenges, the fashion industry is seeking innovative solutions to ensure product authenticity and protect brand reputation. One such promising solution is the use of NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) to provide verifiable proof of authenticity and provenance for products.

Phygital NFTs as a solution to counterfeiting

Phygital NFTs are an innovative combination of physical products and digital certificates of authenticity based on blockchain technology. With immutable blockchain records, consumers can trace the origin and history of products, effectively eliminating the risk of counterfeiting.

How it works

• Unique NFT token: Each product is equipped with a unique NFT token integrated with a QR code or NFC chip. By scanning this code, consumers can instantly verify the product's authenticity and access its complete history.
• Transparency: Blockchain technology ensures that every step in the product's lifecycle is immutably recorded and accessible for verification, eliminating the risk of counterfeiting and promoting sustainability.

Example: The brand Recman used NFT technology to label its limited DTW Tennis Club Collection, supported by Wimbledon and Australian Open champion ?ukasz Kubot. Each product in this collection comes with a unique NFT certificate providing detailed product information, confirming its authenticity. Consumers can scan the NFT/QR code to instantly verify the product's authenticity, eliminating the risk of counterfeiting and enhancing brand trust.

Benefits for brands

NFT technology not only increases transparency and prevents counterfeiting but also opens up new opportunities for brands to create interactive and engaging experiences for customers. By integrating NFTs with products, brands can offer much more than just physical goods—they can provide rich, multidimensional experiences that strengthen customer bonds and create unique added value.

• Personalized content and experiences: NFTs allow brands to offer personalized experiences tailored to individual customer preferences.
• Exclusive content and event access: NFTs can serve as passes to exclusive events and content, available only to select customers, enhancing a sense of uniqueness and prestige.
• Gamification and interactivity: Gamification is another way brands can use NFTs to engage customers and create exceptional shopping experiences.
• Building community and brand interaction: NFT technology allows brands to build communities of loyal customers engaged with the brand on a deeper level.
• NFT as a Digital Product Passport: NFTs can serve as DPP, providing detailed information about origin, technical specifications, and environmental impact. This helps brands meet transparency and sustainability requirements in line with the EU ESPR Directive.
