Semiconductor Review has named ERAI its 2026 Anti-Counterfeit Solutions Provider of the Year, recognising its role in helping organisations manage supply chain risk and protect against counterfeit electronic components.

The award highlights ERAI’s use of global data and intelligence to identify high-risk parts and suppliers. As counterfeit threats become more sophisticated, this level of visibility is increasingly important for manufacturers and distributors.

Established in 1995, ERAI has developed into a trusted source of supply chain insight. What was once a relatively isolated issue has grown into a widespread challenge, driven by complex international sourcing networks. ERAI addresses this through a comprehensive database built from contributions by manufacturers, distributors, test laboratories and industry bodies worldwide.

By sharing verified, real-world information — including part histories, incident reports and supporting evidence — ERAI enables organisations to make more informed sourcing decisions and reduce exposure to counterfeit components.

Auckland International have been members of ERAI since 1998.
