About Quantum Base

Quantum Base is a quantum science company creating a new global standard in
authentication through its patented Q-ID solution - unbreakable and
non-replicable authenticity tags that can be applied to a vast array of
products, significantly mitigating counterfeiting.

The technology underpinning Q-IDs harnesses randomness at the atomic level,
and this volume and variation ensure that there is virtually an infinite
number of combinations that can be created. The Q-ID is practically impossible
to replicate using even the most advanced available technology.

Q-IDs can be applied to almost any print line and can be entirely
non-intrusive to a product's existing design, meaning that they can be
utilised in a vast number of end markets. The authentication process to
identify printed tags is undertaken using existing and unmodified smartphone
technology, providing easy authentication and proven security for global
brands, governments and consumers.
