To confound counterfeiters, SICPA layers security elements into each of its inks. “We may put a fluorescent marker in a thermochromic ink to make it a little more special. We also put fluorescent markers in solvent reactive inks and MICR inks,” Jay explained. “So, one particular ink features several different security properties. Many [distributors] are not aware of this. All of our inks are special in that they respond to some stimulus. A counterfeiter may be able to recreate the color of the ink, but not its properties.”
