At All in Print China 2016, Holostik India will be present at Hall N2 Stand B359. One of the largest manufacturers of security holograms in the world in terms production volume, the company has more than 50% market share in India. Along with security label products, Holostik also has integrated IT solutions in its portfolio.
Holostik has developed various covert and overt features in holography and printing to protect products from counterfeiting. The company has also incorporated security features in its products like mirror strips, raster features, holographic scratch, security inks (forensic inks, color-changing and heat-sensitive inks).
Along with its products to check the hidden security features, Holostik also supplies devices such as raster films, microscope, UV lights, magnifying glass, conductivity testers and handheld terminals for reading barcodes. Taggant and Talking pen are some of the unique solutions from Holostik which will be displayed at All in Print China. Taggant is a secure system allowing instant authenticity inspection with a portable reader. Taggant is not a holographic feature, but a special covert coating inside the hologram which cannot be replicated or detected by any device except the unique taggant reader from Holostik. Talking pen is also an electro-optic sensing technology as well as a special coating and can be detected with a special pen which responds about authenticity with an audio note when kept on a hologram with the special coating inside and confirms that it is genuine. These coatings cannot be detected or replicated without special devices from Holostik.
Other products that will be displayed at the event are self-adhesive holographic scratch for faster applications over scratch cards; mirror strips with micro text; international food grade standards approved pouches with holography; shrink sleeves with full and partial spot holography; chameleongram, which is a color changing hologram with a combination of holography and printing; special holographic labels for the lubricant industry with unique creative designs and printings; and, induction sealing liners and wads with printing on inside and outside layers for more security, inventory management and attractive appearance.
