Payne Security launches its new range of Integra™ solutions for protecting passports and ID documents at INTERGRAF’s XI^th International Security Printers’ Exhibition, under the theme of ‘simple complex’ technology. From the new Integra™SF thin holographic film, for the protection of passport bio-pages, to a new range of Integra™iD high durability identification cards; Payne Security offers a range of authentication and protection solutions for security documents.

The launch of the Integra™ range follows an extensive eighteen month consultation period with customers and suppliers, during which Payne Security has responded to demands for unique document authentication solutions that offer maximum flexibility and responsiveness in usage but also consistently secure results.

“The thrust of ‘simple complex’ is to highlight customer requirements for ease and simplicity in terms of use of the Integra™ range, and the need for complexity when it comes to the security aspects. This is achieved using sophisticated product assembly and printing techniques that are virtually impossible to copy or duplicate,” comments Stephen Pinchen, Payne Security’s Business Development Director.

Payne Security’s new range of Integra™iD cards and card components is available using a choice of highly durable substrates with an extended life span, that can be combined with the company’s portfolio of security technologies to provide unique, tailored solutions for a variety of ID card applications. Options include an all PET (Polyester) card, Polycarbonate and a synthetic core structure that can be integrated with contact, contactless or dual interface chip technologies depending on the card application.

In addition, Payne Security will be bringing its new machine readable taggant solution to INTERGRAF.  Demonstrations of the technology – which provides authentication for a range of security applications and products such as tax stamps and passports – will be available by appointment.

“This is only the start of our aspiration to develop a business that delivers a stream of value-adding innovative products and services. INTERGRAF’s XI^th International Security Printers’ Exhibition represents the ideal arena in which to state our ambitions,” adds Stephen Pinchen.
