Galaxy® Security Threads
Clear authentication, high dynamics and 3D effects – Louisenthal has rolled all these properties into an innovative security thread technology. Galaxy® is based on tiny microscopic mirrors plus ColorShift™, a technology which provides a brilliant visual experience and extreme protection against counterfeiting.
RollingStar® Venus Security Threads
RollingStar® Venus threads add security by means of novel nanotechnology and provide completely new dynamic effects for secure authentication. As the latest addition to the RollingStar® family, they maintain all security properties while incorporating advanced nanotechnology.
RollingStar® i+ Security Thread
With RollingStar® i+ we have taken the visual impact and design possibilities for banknotes to a new level. Simple and fast authentication, outstanding visibility even in unfavourable lighting conditions and cutting-edge dynamics are among the highlights of RollingStar® i+.
RollingStar® Security Threads
RollingStar®’s striking color shift and dynamic effects are a real eye-catcher and ideal for immediate level-one authentication. Use them to achieve distinctive effects, such as the striking “rolling cube” where a truly dynamic color shift reflection travels over the surface.
ColorShift™ Threads
ColorShift™ and ColorShift™/ColorFix security threads deliver striking colors that change when the note is tilted. We offer a wide range of color options so you can customise the thread to your banknote design.
