Charms™ is a covert brand protection and document authentication solution that uses printable, microstructured taggants to provide protection against product counterfeiting and diversion. Charms, which can be added in a semitransparent layer on top of virtually any substrate, may be personalized with letters, numbers, symbols, logos, colors, shapes, and textures. Charms can also be used in SecureShift® ink and standalone in varnish.
Charms microfl akes are invisible to the naked eye but can be quickly identified and verifi ed with a portable, low-cost 200 – 400x microscope that requires only minimal training. The result is visual product authentication—in the field—within seconds.
Contact JDSU Customer Service for additional product information or to develop a customized solution.
Charms are available only through our secure distribution channels, which include JDSU and its SecureShift authorized printing partners.
