About Us

JOEL Product & Brand Security was formed in 1993 by senior partner and managing director, Johannes von Schilcher.

The company began as a consultancy, offering strategies to combat counterfeiting and related criminal activities that negatively influenced not only the image, brands and products of a company but also its bottom line and long-term viability.

JOEL successfully developed and implemented security concepts that were tailored specifically to the needs of the client, incorporating the protection of products, locations, manufacturing methods, markets and distribution channels. The company has represented clients in negotiations with European Union, Asian and North American government agencies on the subject of enforcement and customs procedures, and implemented lobbying strategies to stop cross-border traffic of counterfeit products.

JOEL quickly discovered a massive demand for state-of-the-art security technology that would also be cost-effective. The company’s high-end products are now used in currencies and other related security products all around the world.

We always tailor our security products to the needs of the client. Our systems are 100% guaranteed, function in all climates and perform as described. They can be integrated in modular systems on a simple yes/no basis or embedded in a complex, encrypted security fence that allows codes decipherable only for those with “Need to Know” clearance. The custom decoders can only be used for the specific technology in question.

For this type of project, JOEL Product & Brand Security has linked up with highly reputable international firms and has benefited from their technological support and know-how.

At JOEL we have rule: Every question has an individual answer. We will develop security technology applications with the brand owner. If the client wishes, we will do extensive field testing and train the personnel who will ultimately handle our technology. In the end, we will accompany our clients until they are fully satisfied with the solution and their security concerns have been eliminated.

We are proud to say that we haven’t lost a client since we opened in 1993.
Our mission is to be:
