| New generation of window technology |
|
|
| Any thread (holographic, color shift, tilt). |
|
|
| Window of any shape or any length |
|
Some of the thread was visible |
| Edges of threads are embedded into the paper |
|
Thread woven into one side of the note |
| High security. Only 2-3 firms have ability |
|
Many firms can create and imitate |
| High quality. Perfect registration of threads in paper due to technology |
|
Defect rate driven by movement of thread during insertion in note
|
| Thread can be viewed from both sides of the note
|
|
One side of note only |
| Security is enhanced, supported and heightened by the embedding process. Therefore it is possible to achieve high security by using basic cheaper threads
|
|
Because of the repeatability of basic window technology, security is being driven by increasingly expensive threads
