What is Nanotech Security?
Nanotech Security specializes in developing and deploying sophisticated security features for currency authentication and brand protection. Their product portfolio includes secure labels, stripes, patches, and colour-shifting foils. A cornerstone of their offering is KolourOptik®, a patented visual technology exclusive to the government and banknote market. This technology leverages sub-wavelength nanostructures and microstructures to generate overt security features with unique optical effects, including full colour, 3D depth, and movement, making them exceptionally difficult to replicate. Complementing this is LiveOptik®, another patented visual technology that uses nano-optics significantly smaller than traditional holograms to create next-generation overt security features. LiveOptik delivers multi-colour, 3D depth, movement, and image switches for secure brand protection stripes, threads, and labels, further enhancing anti-counterfeiting measures.
