Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for printing one or more security items on a substrate of which at least a part is made of a transparent material, and in particular to a method for printing one or more security items on security documents, on a part of a security document or on a substrate that can be transferred to a security document.
  • Security documents are in particular: banknotes, postage stamps, identity cards, passports, checks, certificates, certificates of authenticity, ....
  • the present invention relates also to a printed security item manufactured according to such a method.
  • banknotes in a synthetic material do not have this drawback, as they can last about four times as long as the conventional cotton notes.
  • the plastic note technology uses a polymer plastic substrate instead of paper. Compared to paper, plastic banknotes are stronger and non-porous.
  • the transparent material is a transparent synthetic material.
  • security documents such as banknotes, credit cards, drivers' licenses, etc. printed on a substrate (1) of which at least a part is made of a transparent material
  • This transparent material can be made out of a transparent synthetic material such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polyester, polycarbonate, polyamide or a combination thereof. Also plastic substrates made out of another material are possible ass well.
