A new technology from Securikett makes product and security labels more versatile and harder to replicate. The so-called “structured silicone coating” enables special features such as integrated viewing windows, technical openings, or ventilation holes, while at the same time providing additional protection against counterfeiting.
The innovation is based on a special coating technique used during the production of the label material. During manufacturing, precisely defined areas can be die-cut from the label. These parts remain on the liner while the actual label separates from it. This allows product windows, small openings, or other special structures to be created directly within the label.

These elements can serve not only practical purposes but also function as security features. Because the precise structures are created during the material manufacturing process, they are very difficult for counterfeiters to reproduce.
“We can already define during production exactly where a label should adhere and where it should not,” explains Vanessa Mitterer-Kling from Securikett’s Research and Development department. “This allows completely new functions and security features to be integrated directly into the label.”
The technology therefore expands the design and functional possibilities of modern security labels. Manufacturers can integrate additional features into their products and increase protection against counterfeiting, while the labels remain compatible with standard application processes.
