Product Overview

Transparent Security Holograms
Custom Imprinted Transparent Holograms

Transparent holograms are typically used for identifcation credentials. We offer stock and custom transparent holograms.

This page highlights the stock transparent holograms -- all of which can be custom imprinted with your company name, logo, consecutive serial number and other features. For added security we maintain a hologram imprint registry to assure that your unique imprint is only available to your company.

For fully custom transparent holograms, please give us a call.

Transparent hologram labels are compatible with lamination pouches to make ID cards. They can be affixed to the ID insert before laminating or affixed to the finished laminated card.

Transparent hologram protect critical information from alterations. Just apply the hologram label over the data you want to protect (photos, date of birth, signatures, etc).

Since underlying information can be see through the transparent hologram label, it is also an affordable method of re-validating an existing ID card. Instead of printing new ID cards each year, simply peel and stick the transparent hologram label (or overlay) onto an existing ID card.

Another option is to include the new expiration date (or serial number, etc) in the text of a custom imprinted hologram label.

All of our transparent hologram labels include a tamper evident feature. If an attempt is made to remove the label from the product or document, or to reposition it, the image self-destructs. This is an additional security feature, which typically leaves a pattern of dots:

Transparent Security Holograms

Our most affordable option is to customize stock holographic products with your company name or logo, but we can also create a totally custom product as well depending on your requirements.

Your Custom Imprint is Registered!

For added security, we maintain an imprint registry to assure that your unique imprint is only available to your company.

Choosing a Hologram

For the best service, our plain and pre-printed transparent holograms are available for immediate shipment.

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

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.

The custom imprint and/or serial number is printed on the label surface. Although the 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 gasoline). Typical applications for laminated labels are:

ID Badges and Credentials
Season passes (water parks, beaches, ski resorts)
Hand-held devices (cell phones, tablets, computers, etc)
Equipment asset labels
Collectibles subject to handling
Outdoor applications over 1 year

See our Laminated Hologram Stickers page for more info on laminated hologram 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 Section A8 for More Info on custom holograms. Custom holographic labels usually require about 30 days to complete, but sometimes they can be completed sooner.

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.

Choosing a Size and Shape

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.

Intended Use of Holograms

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.

Warning to Counterfeiters

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.
