SPECIAL PRINTING EFFECTS AND ANTI-COUNTERFEITING: GASPERINI GLOBAL PARTNER
The special finishing of any printed product is a complex and articulated process, which requires an harmonic integration of all the working levels, starting from the graphic conception, up to the final user's fruition. This is even much more evident and important when it is necessary to increase the product security, with an high anticounterfeiting deterrent.
The
special finishing process (thermography, die-stamping, foil stamping and emboss)
is often considered as the “last printing step”, but this is not the correct
approach. Gasperini is your “key” global partner for the development of
complete printing products, also in the anti-counterfeiting field: from the original
graphic idea, up to the final production.
Digital technologies, if
the working levels are correctly coordinated, are able to save time, allowing to prepare the
finishing step before the offset printing. Show your ideas, your needs, your
layouts: we will be glad to co-operate with you, and to create a quality product, with
high technical content and added value.

Anti-counterfeiting: why? |
Applications |
|
When using the pearlescent powders, the special combination of ink (on base) + colored pearl powder gives a unique, irreproducible color effect (it is impossible to know what kind of ink is on base, once it has been thermo’d). |
Book covers, stamps, labels, security documents, brochures, tags, stationery, greeting cards, packaging. |
|
|
The excellence technique for anticounterfeiting. The combination of the engraved dies/plates + special optical/diffraction inks gives to any document a high rate of security. |
Banknotes, cheques, stamps, security documents, labels, tags, authenticity certificates. |
|
|
If developed at their maximum quality, foiling and emboss can guarantee a high level of security. A special or personalized micro-engraved texture (textured foiling) or an artistic sculptured emboss are almost impossible to reproduce. |
Book covers, stamps, labels, security documents, brochures, tags, stationery, greeting cards, packaging, authenticity certificates. |
