We can incorporate many security features into the design of security print products, many of which can be found below:
SECURITY FEATURES
Guilloche - Very complex pattern of never ending lines
Watermarked Paper - Allows easy identification of authenticity. The watermark & ultra violet dull paper cannot be easily replicated. It changes colour when attacked with acids or alkalis.
Holographic Image - If photocopying is attempted, the refracted light on the metallic foil causes the hologram to lose its lustre & appear unclear. Stock or bespoke holograms can be used.
Microtext - A minute font size is used which can only be viewed through a magnifying glass. If it is photocopied, the text will blur making the message unrecognisable.
Anti Photocopy Feature - Reveals a hidden message when photocopied, such as FRAUD or VOID & can be used to provide another level of protection against fraudulent alteration.
Sequential Numbering - Gives clear audit trail, allowing duplicates to be more easily detected.
Invisible Ultra Violet Ink - Under UV light, a previously invisible image will appear easily identifying an authentic product.
Security Inks - Aqua & solvent sensitive inks provide protection from attempted tampering using water & solvents. The inks will smudge when touched by one of these substances.
Thermochromic Inks - React by changing colour or disappear when subjected to heat, are ideal for providing instant verification.
Barcode - Used at point of sale to avoid the denomination being recorded incorrectly.
