RollingStar® i+
G+D Louisenthal (Germany)
RollingStar® i+ is Louisenthal's latest generation security thread technology that represents a significant advancement in micromirror-based security features for banknotes. It combines enhanced dynamics, improved color effects, and refined ColourShift™ formulation to create unmatched security "from within" the banknote substrate.
Technical innovation:
The technology features an innovative multi-facet substructure with even more sophisticated micromirror alignment and shaping. This advancement in micromirror technology delivers more pronounced dynamic effects, more vivid colors, and sharper visual definition than previous generations. The security thread integrates proven magnetic technology alongside the optical features.
Security advantages:
- Simple, fast, and reliable public authentication
- Dual optically variable effects (dynamics and color shift) on the same surface multiply security
- Outstanding visibility even in unfavorable lighting conditions
- Major obstacle for counterfeiters due to complex manufacturing processes
- Substrate integration creates unmatched security levels (only possible with cotton-based banknotes)
Design capabilities:
RollingStar® i+ offers expanded design and individualization options with modern motifs and patterns. This allows central banks to tell their country's story effectively by linking national vision, history, or culture with the currency design. The thread can be optimally integrated into the overall banknote design, making it both secure and aesthetically attractive.
Performance characteristics:
The feature combines "cutting-edge" innovation with tried-and-tested reliability throughout the entire cash cycle. The striking effects of shifting colors and moving motifs immediately attract users' attention and encourage authentication checks, while the sophisticated technology makes the feature future-proof for long-running banknote series.
