The company (Hall 6, stand A38) serves two broad application areas – security and decoration – and offers a vast range of products.

At Drupa it is showing a newly patented product for security applications, the Unigram or Latentogram. It combines a hologram with a latent image, and can contain more than 10 levels of protection in a multilayer film.

The latent image becomes visible when a simple identifier device – about the size of a business card, but with a window containing a special film – is placed over the hologram.

Unigram is targeted at product verification applications at the brand and consumer level.

"Security printing is a cat-and- mouse game: you always have to stay one step ahead of the counterfeiters," said Uflex deputy general manager for marketing CG Ramesh.

Other Uflex products on show include a hotmelt holographic film that can be used for textile and garment decoration.

The company is also showing a biodegradable holographic giftwrap. Ramesh said the company was enjoying a successful show: "It’s been wonderful – we’ve already booked a big order with a security printing customer from the UK. We’re very happy."
