      Before the advent of personal computers, color copiers and desktop scanners, security printing consisted of individually steel-engraved designs that were almost impossible to copy. Success in today's high-tech environment, however, requires a unique blending of old-world craftsmanship with modern technology-and this is where BCA excels.

     Banknote Corporation of America is renowned for its master engravers and designers who painstakingly design and create documents that often become actual works of art. These craftsmen amaze with the beauty and detail of steel hand-engraved portraits, images and borders.

 

     The intaglio printing method takes this fine art a step further by allowing for instant verification by touch. This "feel of steel" is virtually impossible to reproduce due to the raised three dimensional effect. Because of its security characteristics, the intaglio printing method is endorsed by law enforcement organizations worldwide and is chosen for most currencies around the world.

     This attention to craftsmanship ensures that Banknote Corporation of America will provide the security you require and the distinctive designs that set our clients apart. At the same time, our expertise in technological safeguards will guarantee your documents the highest security features available. BCA is continually developing new methods to protect your documents-our technology is second to none.

     Proprietary anticopy features, latent images and microline printing are some of the techniques we use in our designs to customize your security documents. For instance, microline printing - or micro text - hidden in a document, can be verified for authenticity in seconds with a simple magnifying glass. Antinomic color devices are also used for additional protection. We have the capability to enhance every document with machine readable features such as MICR and OCR numbering, and innovative bar coding technology and holograms.

     Beyond our craftsmanship and technology, our modern manufacturing facility in Greensboro, North Carolina, offers the latest generation of automated quality control and accountability systems. You can be assured that Banknote Corporation of America is at the forefront-not only in the acquisition of new technologies, but in their development.
