In the past few years, the demand of security holograms has risen many a folds. Holograms are pasted on products and packages and say something about the brand, which they belong to. These stickers are pasted or may be printed on a product, and showcase that the product is original.

Counterfeits are at extreme these days, and have a huge presence in the consumer goods market. Did you buy a brand of pasta a couple of days back, which does not taste as good as it used to do earlier? If your answer is yes, then maybe you would have bought a fake packet of pasta, and you would have started thinking that what has happened to the brand. But, in fact, it is not the brand; it is the work of black marketers or counterfeits. They create the exact copy of products, and supply the same in the market. Their fake products have the same resemblance but the quality as originals. These fake products are prepared under the down process of manufacturing and packaging, and most of the time in a dirty environment. The production cost of duplicate products is quite less. Thereby, if sold having the logo of a popular brand, it offers ...
... handsome margins to the fakes. Resellers and shop owners also sell these counterfeited products just to earn extra margins.

To prevent such cases, scientists have prepared anti-counterfeit solutions that have cropped the wings of these illegal counterfeits. Using a security hologram is one of those solutions. These labels are cost effective, and cannot be copied. Being affordable is the main reason for the rise in the demand of the holographic stickers. It hardly affects the production cost of goods.

Popularly found on food products, banknotes, credit and debit cards, medicine wrappers, security holograms can be seen on packages of almost all popular goods and services. Let us know some more fact that why security holograms are getting popular-

Customized Design: These labels are one of the most secure ways to maintain the identity of a product or brand. These 2D or 3D stickers are prepared under high security, and it is almost impossible to create the exact image of these stickers. Black marketers can court the original product but cannot copy the style and uniqueness of its hologram.

Uniqueness: Every hologram is unique in its own. Apart from the brand logo and name, it has a unique code in it, which is defined and given by the company or manufacturers. Thereby, copying a security hologram is impractical.

Make: The way a hologram is pasted on a product package, it is really impossible to take it off and paste it again on another package. It will lose its physical looks.

Safety: Security labels are made under high security scanners, and it is impossible for folks to create the image as real as real sticklers.

Having such advanced features, these holographic stickers are getting popular among companies and manufacturers around the world. And, on the other hand, it is getting difficult for illegal manufacturers to copy and produce the counterfeit products and goods. In recent few years, the demand of holographic stickers has risen to a new level because of the current flood of fakers. This also has led companies to opt for a secure solution. And there could be no better solution than security hologram.
