Thermochromic inkThe use of Thermochromic Ink in combination with a pre-printed warning border serves as a highly effective deterrent to criminals intending to duplicate or counterfeit sensitive documents. It also provides a quick and simple method for bank tellers and officials to confirm its authenticity. These inks are specially treated to provide a color changing sequence when heated to a defined temperature range.

Our Thermochromic Ink feature is ideal for checks, gift certificates, events tickets, bank notes, P.O.S. receipts, identification cards, transcripts and more.
