Microtext:
Micro text is one of the techniques that we are using to make a product authentic and hard to counterfeit. Due to the small sizes of text, symbols, and codes, it is very difficult to mimic its features without using professional and high-quality industrial machinery like printing-press and specialized printing-plates. Also, taking into consideration the fact that micro text is impossible to remark and distinguish, counterfeiters are unaware of its existence.
Taggants:
Taggants are a security material that consists of very thin aluminum particles. They are mainly used for the authentication of products and documents. In addition, taggants are a reliable solution, such as any counterfeiter can not spot them with the naked eye. Therefore, they can detect them only by using specially-engineered equipment or low-cost detectors for field testing.
Guilloche:
Guilloches are highly complex and very fine, curved bands of lines. In industry, for instance, they are usually printed on banknotes, currency or certificates to protect against forged copies. Moreover, guilloches have a very intricate structure. It is very hard for counterfeiters to replicate it by using ordinary equipment like a color copier.
Holograms:
A hologram is a three-dimensional image (3D). It is forming from the interference of light beams from a laser or other source of intense light. Holograms are an efficient way for anti-counterfeiting any product, such as they can incorporate various data forms and product tracking information.
Invisible inks:
Invisible ultra-violet ink is one of the most widely used inks for cheque printing and document protection. Under normal lighting conditions, the ink is invisible to the eye and can be revealed only under a black lamp or UV light source.
