New Favini paper offers brand protection

Italian specialty and security paper manufacturer Favini has developed special inclusions, treatments and finishes that assure a high level of security. The latest of these is Secure-Skin, a unique micro embossing. At first sight it looks simply to be a decorative embossing, but it embeds a micro text visible with a 15x or more powerful lens.

Secure-Skin can be a useful tool for brand protection: Favini is able to provide high quality papers with a hidden customized micro message, logo or pattern repetition, ideal for packaging solutions where counterfeiting is a major issue -  boxes, labeling, tags, product certifications plus associated supporting materials like shopping bags, corporate communication and documentation.

The height of the text can reach 280 micron and the length of a word like “SECURITY” is just 2 mm. The size of the micro text is not detectable to the naked eye, a magnification of 15 or more is needed.

Favini offers a standard Secure-Skin solution and support for developing customized Secure-Skin designs according to the corporate image guidelines and specific needs of customers. The minimum quantity for the customization is around 3T.
