Counterfeit protection

Printed protection against copies

Whether voucher, inspection sticker, certificate, certificate of authenticityparking permit, admission ticket or prize draw: all these printed forms certify rights and values. They must therefore be particularly protected against forgery, misuse and copying.

Unfortunately, most conventional prints can even be deceptively reproduced using a color copier. In addition to the financial loss of a counterfeit, there is often a loss of trust on the customer side and negative publicity.

Types of security features on printed matter

Three categories of security features are used:

1. Visible security features, such as hologram effects
2. Tactile security features, such as embossing
3. Hidden security features, such as information recognizable by means of a bill validator

The more features you include, the more difficult it becomes for professional counterfeiters. They then turn to products that are easier to counterfeit.
