Covestro introduced CERTEVO, a polymeric printing substrate designed for advanced security printing applications like high-secure and durable official documents, certificates, and applications demanding for advanced anti-counterfeiting measures

“The introduction of CERTEVO marks a pivotal advancement in security printing as an innovative, recyclable polymeric substrate that combines excellent printability, durability, and sustainability,” said Daniel Hentschel, global segment manager, ID & Security Printing at Covestro.

Covestro’s CERTEVO revolutionizes security printing with several key features: It supports excellent printability via intaglio and offset processes, enabling embossing structures—surpassing traditional paper and enhancing security elements.

Its hotmelt nature eliminates the need for coatings and primers, ensuring superior ink adhesion that simplifies printing and boosts durability. Additionally, advanced laser engravability allows precise micro-engravings, making counterfeiting efforts more challenging.

As a single-polymer composition, CERTEVO is recyclable, meeting the demand for sustainable security printing materials. Its high tear resistance and ink adhesion extend the lifecycle of printed items while conserving resources.

Furthermore, its durable composition lowers long-term costs by minimizing replacements, making it an ideal choice for governments and the public sector that prioritize security and environmental responsibility.
