Now, the company has announced the production qualification and launch of QUANTUM™ stripe, a new banknote security product based on the award-winning KolourOptik® technology. According to the company, QUANTUM stripe delivers a combination of movement, 3D stereoscopic depth, and multicolour effects in an ultrathin form factor, providing enhanced security and an engaging authentication experience.

Meta, under its form name of Nanotech Security Corporation, has been a pioneer in banknote OVD technology for the past decade with innovations in micro-, nano- and now plasmonic structures.
