UV/IR technology

To meet current and future anti-counterfeiting requirements, the co. recently launched SunGuard™ Apollo, an IR brand-protection solution that helps fight the ongoing battle against counterfeiters. This technology uses special pigments from a secure supply chain and offers an intelligent combination of security features. In addition to an increased level of security, this technology is compatible with current printing practices. If the printer or converter is already using UV fluorescent inks, the product can be integrated into these types of inks to form an enhanced UV/IR protection. This will enable printers to offer their customers a security enhanced product without compromising on current style, design or color. The product portfolio is available either within the ink or as a clear varnish.
