Holographic and anti-counterfeit labels

Holographic and anti-counterfeit labels combine visible or hidden elements, such as holograms, security inks and hot stamping, to authenticate a product and make it harder to copy. They are applied to the product or its packaging, and a hologram is checked by eye, without a reader.

In this category we prepare custom holographic security labels, with a design exclusive to the customer, and combine them in a single label with a VOID layer, numbering, QR code or scratch-off layer. We also cover sector-specific anti-counterfeit seals and tamper-evident windshield stickers.

No label removes counterfeiting on its own. According to the EUIPO anti-counterfeiting technology guide, checking a hologram requires knowing the original as a reference; that is why it pays to combine several layers and agree how each label is verified.

We serve business customers only. Datasheets, test reports and samples are available on request, and lead time and price are confirmed in the offer.

Frequently asked questions

What is a holographic security label?

It is a label with a hologram, an optical device whose visual effect changes with the lighting and the viewing angle. According to the EUIPO guide, it is used to authenticate products and needs no reader.

How can counterfeiting be reduced with holographic labels?

No label prevents it on its own. Checking a hologram requires knowing the original as a reference (EUIPO); that is why layers are combined, such as an exclusive design, VOID, a unique number, QR and a scratch-off layer, and it is defined who verifies the label and how.

What are security inks?

They are special inks that add a second check, visual or with a tool. According to the EUIPO, optically variable inks change colour with the angle, UV-fluorescent inks need a lamp and thermochromic inks change with temperature.

Can I use my own hologram design?

Yes, with a master or pattern exclusive to the customer. The customer must demonstrate the rights to the design and the authorization for any trademarks included.
