Holograms With Taggants

For the best service, our plain and pre-printed holograms are available for immediate shipment. For plain silver holograms see Stock Silver Holograms; for plain transparent holograms see Stock Transparent Holograms.

Custom imprinted holograms offer more security. Your custom text is included in the base pricing. We also offer optional logos and serial numbers.

Custom imprinted silver holograms are highlighted on this page. We also offer Colored Holograms and Stock Transparent Holograms.

An order for custom imprinting is normally ready to ship within 3 business days. Stock imprint colors are black and red. We also offer green and blue as optional premium colors. Other options include two-color imprints and hidden flourescing inks.

Although the customized imprint is durable for most applications, we also offer and recommend optional laminated labels to fully protect the custom imprint from excessive handling, wear or chemical exposure (alcohol in sun screen and hand lotion or any petroleum based chemicals, such as gasoloine). Laminated labels are recommended for these applications:

• ID Badges
• Season passes (water parks, beaches, ski resorts)
• Hand-held devices (cell phones, etc)
• Equipment asset labels

See OPTIONS for a full listing of optional features and pricing.

We can also create a totally custom hologram product as well depending on your requirements. See the Custom Hologram Design section for more info on custom holograms. Custom holographic labels usually requires about 30 days to complete, but sometimes they can be completed in less time.

The tamper evident security feature performs best on smooth non-porous surfaces, such as metal, PVC cards, plastics, clay-coated paper, etc. If you are affixing holograms to textured surfaces, uncoated paper, fabric, or other porous materials, we recommend you request our free samples and test prior to ordering.

The silver or colored metallic holograms may not be suitable for printed circuit boards (or other electrical applications). The silver metallic layer is conductive and may cause issues if in direct contact with the circuitry. For these applications, consider a transparent hologram

Circles are easier and quicker to manually affix. If slightly mis-aligned, the circle still has a professional appearance.

If wrapping the hologram label over the edge of a box, use a long and narrow shape (do NOT use a circle or square shape). The narrow width seals the edge of the box; the longer length is applied equally to the sides of the box. The ideal shape is a barbell, but a rectangle is equally effective.

If wrapping the hologram label over a sharp, narrow edge (edge of a CD case, coin case, etc) we recommend the barbell or a long and narrow rectangle.

For contoured surfaces (baseballs, football, etc) choose an oval shape.

If using a laminated label, it will require a perforation located at each change of direction. For wrapping the label around complex shapes, a custom label may be required with a perforation at each change of direction.

Larger holograms have more visual impact.

Our holograms are designed, tested, and intended for anti-counterfeiting, anti-tampering and promotional applications.

Our holographic products do NOT provide any documented health or medical benefits such as improved balance, sleep, pain-relief, weight loss, smoking cessation, etc.

Our holographic products do NOT provide any documented benefits to improve gas mileage, energy efficiency, cell phone reception, etc.

Our holographic products cannot be programmed to resonate at specific frequencies.

In our opinion, claims of medical benefits or improved machine performance are questionable and scientifically unsupported. Consumers should request an independent study (with blind testing) to verify any such claims and benefits.

We are not aware of any independent studies which validate such claims and benefits. Therefore, we will not intentionally produce holograms for these applications.

If NovaVision is requested to produce custom security products or branded packaging, we require proof to substantiate that you are authorized to purchase that product. We independently verify your contact information and legitimacy. If you are not authorized to purchase the product, your contact information may be provided to law enforcement authorities without further notice. NovaVision cooperates with all local, state, federal and international law enforcement agencies to catch and prosecute fraudulent purchases and counterfeiting.

Counterfeiting is illegal and is defined as any attempt to copy an original with the intent to defraud. It is illegal to purchase a fake identification product, an unauthorized custom hologram, an unauthorized duplicate security label, or counterfeit packaging which uses a copyrighted brand name or logo. Further, in the USA, legislation is pending to expand the criminal law so that federal prosecutors will have an easier time prosecuting counterfeiters that manufacture bogus product labels and packaging.

Hologram labels cannot be scanned or photocopied and are a proven method to combat counterfeiting. They can also create a unique and attractive complement to your existing packaging and product. For more information about holograms, click on the following links:
