Pushing holographic boundaries


 
The International Hologram Manufacturers Association’s Excellence in Holography Awards has shown how innovation continues to push the boundaries for new holographic applications.
 
This year’s awards were presented at the dinner of the annual holography conference Holopack•Holo-print in Budapest, Hungary in November. They recognise outstanding industry achievement and are presented to organisations who have introduced the most innovative or commercially viable hologram product or technique over the year.
 
The quality of entries was as high as ever with award winners demonstrating that ground breaking technology coupled with imaginative applications reinforces the important role holography plays, particularly in tackling anti-counterfeiting and authentication.
 
Holostik India Ltd has created a technique for using low optical density (OD) metalizing on holographic embossing without touching the sealing side of PVC, enabling blister packs to be produced with the hologram on the blister side, which  won the ‘Innovation in Holographic Production ’ category.

Metalizing also enhances the barrier property of PVC blister film while a high temperature scratch proof coating on the hologram, which can be transparent or coloured, was also praised for its technical excellence.
 
A new holographic security film on polycarbonate (PC) from optical solutions provider JDSU, scooped the prize for the ‘Best Applied Security Product’. Holofuse is a laminate layer for PC ID cards, so it requires no additional card manufacturing stage, and the material bonds at the molecular level. It thwarts ID and passport counterfeiters because the holographic layer is integral and cannot be removed from the rest of the card.
 
Another development came from Specialized Enterprise Holography LLC, which has developed a new holographic security feature for potential ID and document applications among others. Its new T.I.G.R.A. (Transparent Interacting Grat...
