Security Features

Micro Printing
MicroPrinting is standard litho printing utilizing ultra fine text printing, which appears to be graphic lines, but is actually very small text that conveys a security message. UV Visible Ink
UV visible ink can be used to print logos or other art components in ink that is not visible to the human eye under normal conditions. Ultraviolet lamps will reveal the security feature. Optical Variable Ink
Optical Variable Ink (OVI) also known as color shifting ink, is a unique process whereby a logo, emblem, or other art features, can be printed in a duel-toned ink that will change color appearance depending on the viewing angle. Foil Stamping
A simple emblem or logo can be foil stamped in a variety of metallic or holographic foils. Card Serialization
If inventory control of blank or preprinted cards that are used in an instant issuance program are of concern, card serialization can be a simple solution. This feature involves Thermal Imaging, which is a small, unobtrusive serial number on the front and/or back of the card stock.
