Staining Inks

In many countries, ATM and Cash-in-Transit attacks are rising, revealing the need for upstream protection and traceability systems to retrieve stolen banknotes.

Used as part of Intelligent Banknote Neutralisation Systems (IBNS), SICPA staining inks are automatically sprayed when cash-handling equipment is attacked, leaving highly visible marks on the banknotes. These marks are impossible to remove without damaging the notes’ colours and substrate, even with the most sophisticated cleaning processes.
