Molecular Authentication
for a Transparent World
Haelixa is a Swiss biotech company that has developed a proprietary platform for applying, detecting, and managing DNA-based molecular markers in industrial materials — enabling unbreakable traceability across the entire supply chain from raw material to end product.
Making Authenticity Verifiable
Counterfeiting, supply chain fraud, and false sustainability claims cost the global economy hundreds of billions of dollars each year. Traditional authentication methods — QR codes, holograms, RFID tags — can be copied, removed, or bypassed.
Haelixa's mission is to make material authenticity scientifically verifiable and practically unbreakable. By encoding unique DNA sequences directly into the molecular structure of materials, we create an identity that travels with the product itself — invisible, indestructible, and impossible to forge without access to our secure codebook.
From luxury fashion and pharmaceuticals to agricultural commodities and life sciences research, Haelixa provides the molecular layer of trust that global supply chains need.
