Why it is worth knowing
Three steps, one building, one job number
Most security labels are assembled from parts bought in: an optical layer from one supplier, converting from another, codes from a platform that has never seen the label. Every join is a handover, and a handover is where security and accountability leak.
We cast the film, convert it and issue the codes ourselves. That is not a boast about vertical integration — it is the reason we can tell you what is in a construction, change one layer without renegotiating three contracts, and stand behind the whole thing when it matters.
From film line to scan record
What actually happens to your job
-
Cast and print
The micro-optic array is cast onto film on our roll-to-roll line and printed in register with your artwork.
-
Convert and die-cut
The film is converted into your format — label, seal, stamp, tape or thread — and cut to the shape your line already applies.
-
Code and register
Where the job calls for it, every unit is issued its own identifier and registered before it leaves the building.
-
Apply and verify
You apply it on your existing line. Anyone in the field checks it by eye, and by phone if the code is there.
The layer underneath
The materials and the machines, in detail
Refractive index chemistry, origination and tooling, the 1.1 metre casting line and the conversion equipment behind these three steps have a page of their own.
