Portals to unveil Motus at Global Currency Forum

Portals, a market leading supplier of security components for paper banknotes and security paper will today launch its newest banknote security feature MotusTM.

Motus makes it easy for anyone to simply move and approve genuine banknotes with ultimate confidence.

Using a combination of 1D spherical lens and surface printed images, the end effect is engaging and clear.

Whether integrating into an existing or designing a new banknote series – Motus unlocks the design potential of micro-optics. Enabling banknote designers to create intricate and detailed thread designs that can switch and move to complement the security, strategy and vision of the banknote series.

This design creativity isn’t held back by durability as across the Motus range the convex lenses are overcoated, thus maximising the banknote lifespan regardless of denomination value and circulation conditions.

Motus is the first security product to be launched by Portals since the acquisition of the security business from Fedrigoni in November 2021. “It’s an impressive achievement that in six months we’ve gone from buying the company to launching Motus today” said Steve King – Product Marketing Manager.
