How to Judge if Holographic Stickers are Anti-Counterfeit or Not Hologram labels and stickers have been in vogue since the last two or three decades. However, with their increasing demand, improved versions of holographic labels have been coming up and now one finds an almost unlimited array of such products. Lasersec India is one renowned Indian company that has been manufacturing holographic stickers and labels since 1998. It offers a diverse range of hologram products including but not limited to holographic aluminium foil, holographic blister foil, holographic hot stamping foil, holographic paper labels, holographic barcode labels, and holographic pharmaceutical labels. It supplies its products to numerous business establishments and corporate entities that are engaged in the commercial segments of energy, pharmaceutical, healthcare, food processing, chemicals, electrical and electronics, and many other sectors. Most of the customers of Lasersec have been sourcing their requirements for holographic products since long and are willing to vouchsafe for the quality of the products. Many of Lasersec’s clients some of whom are household names in the country have testified to the effectiveness of its hologram solutions in protecting the originality and uniqueness of their products. Nevertheless, a new or prospective client will always want to judge or evaluate on its own terms whether the holographic labels and tapes, holographic laminates and films offered by Lasersec are anti-counterfeit or not. Lasersec India always makes holograms (irrespective of the type) by first generating a master hologram pattern or design. Very expensive and highly sophisticated equipment is required to create this master hologram. This equipment is exceedingly used in printing currency notes, especially ones with a very high denomination and also for making credit and debit cards. Once the company receives an order for manufacturing customized holograms, it first and foremost designs the master hologram from which the mass imprints are replicated. This master hologram is patented or copyrighted which means it’d be illegal to duplicate the same. In fact, the impersonator would find it almost next to impossible to copy the master pattern in the first place. The master origination technique can be categorized into four broad categories namely 2D master origination, 3D origination, electronic beam origination and dotmatrix origination. The 2D/3D holograms are by far the most widely used of hologram types. They’re constituted of several two dimensional stratums or layers having images that are stacked upon each other. The visual profoundness of the layers creates a 3D impression. To impart high security to the hologram stickers, extra attributes can be added to them like kinetic animation, switching or flip-flop characteristic, hidden text and 3D stereogram effect.
The dot-matrix master holograms are produced using computer generated images that are typified by their rows and columns of microscopic dots having pixels of high resolution. The electronic beam origination from Lasersec is a more advanced version of the dot-matrix process.
