This high-speed roll-to-roll facility will be targeted at a new generation of security foils and labels that leverage PragmatIC’s ultra-thin, flexible and low cost electronic logic.
Enabled functionality will include both overt visual features and machine-readable features, activated by RFID readers and smartphones. Such features have applications across many aspects of security, including personal identity, document authentication, and revenue and brand protection.
Ultimately these capabilities will enhance Andrews & Wykeham’s THESEUS™ track-and-trace system, providing even greater security along with improved ease of use: PragmatIC’s technology will add the ability to track items without requiring line-of-sight, and to record security information directly within a label.
Jamie Willis, Managing Director of Andrews & Wykeham, said “PragmatIC Printing have a unique platform technology for embedding electronic intelligence into labels and foils, which we will leverage to offer a range of totally unique security products to our customers.”
Scott White, Chief Executive Officer of PragmatIC Printing, added “We are excited that Andrews & Wykeham has adopted our technology to enhance their security offering, and look forward to their launch of new products next year.”
