Widely recognized as a breakthrough in polymer banknote base technology, POLYSECURE® SHIELD is the world's first polymer banknote base to incorporate an optically variable (OVD) security element directly into the base itself - a significant step forward from traditional surface-applied features.

POLYSECURE® SHIELD, developed by Q&T Company, marks a significant step forward in polymer banknote printing technology by integrating internal security elements into the banknote printing paper itself, a breakthrough change compared to conventional polymer bases.

POLYSECURE® SHIELD raises the bar for durability, security and design flexibility. By integrating advanced optical security features directly into the polymer banknote substrate, the technology eliminates the current limitations of traditional surface-applied security technologies – providing a next-generation solution for central banks looking for strong, durable and visually impactful banknotes.

What is particularly impressive is the durability and sustainability of the solution. While conventional OVD foils can quickly degrade due to abrasion, moisture, UV exposure or pollution, POLYSECURE® SHIELD preserves both the visual brightness and the structural integrity of the voxels over time.

POLYSECURE® SHIELD also offers significant manufacturing advantages, including a flat surface that allows for full-surface printing and seamless design integration. The technology is highly compatible with existing manufacturing processes, allowing central banks to adopt the technology without disrupting existing workflows.

At the recent Currency Conference in Bangkok, the technology attracted great interest from the industry due to its technical advantages. POLYSECURE® SHIELD technology was evaluated to exceed all durability standards and represents a significant step forward in the development of secure, high-performance banknote substrates.

Feedback from Central Banks and independent experts on POLYSECURE® SHIELD technology has been overwhelmingly positive, highlighting both the innovative nature of the feature and the impressive speed with which the new product was developed and brought to market.
