The circulation of counterfeit goods causes substantial economic losses and erodes public trust. Traditional anti-counterfeiting methods—such as barcodes and laser-printed stickers—can no longer provide effective protection.
As a result, more and more brands are turning to advanced physical security: using hologram stickers based on micro-nano optical anti-counterfeiting technology.
This technology is renowned for its high complexity and difficulty in replicating, offering enhanced visual appeal and strong anti-counterfeiting performance.
Image Technology (IMAGE TECH) continues to develop innovative anti-counterfeiting solutions to maintain leadership in the optical security industry and tackle the growing challenge of technical homogeneity.
Let’s take a closer look at our latest lineup of optical anti-counterfeiting stickers.
Design Principles
An effective anti-counterfeiting solution should integrate both overt features (visible under standard lighting) and covert features (revealed only under specific lighting conditions or with specialized tools).
At IMAGE TECH, we adhere to the national standard General Technical Requirements for Packaging Anti-Counterfeiting, implementing first-line, second-line, and third-line security elements.
The most advanced third-line security is securely stored in encrypted files and only released in sealed envelopes after the client confirms the first and second-line features.
Additionally, we are ISO 27001 certified, ensuring comprehensive data protection through a robust information security management system.
New Product Highlights
🌀 D3 Technology
This technique uses 10–30 layered images, processed through projection lithography to create 2D/3D composite visuals. The result is a vivid, multi-dimensional image that gives a striking sense of depth.
When viewed from different angles, it creates a dynamic, colorful 3D effect that adds visual value to product packaging.
🔳 Parallax 3D Label
This design is inspired by twin “S”-shaped textures, producing a binocular parallax effect.
It adds dimensional depth to logos or text, enhancing both texture and visual engagement.
The illusion becomes especially vivid when the label is moved under dynamic lighting.
🔍 Multi-Image Hidden Sticker
Also known as “image magic,” this technology displays multiple complete images from different angles at the same location.
By combining high spatial frequency and dot filter technology, the design reveals alternating visuals like “印象,” “IMAGE,” and “LOGO” as the angle changes.
🎬 Movie Gradient Optical Sticker
This design features two-thirds static elements and one-third dynamic gradients.
Using projection lithography, it depicts a human face gradually changing from a neutral to a smiling expression, resembling a cinematic slow-motion effect.
🌫 Phantom Illusion Technology
This label uses nano-scale structures to create a foggy, ethereal background, concealing soft, flowing lines that resemble shooting stars moving within clouds. The ghostly visual effect is extremely difficult to replicate.
👘 3D True Color – Kunqu Opera Series
Inspired by Kunqu Opera, this label showcases the elegance of the “Hua Dan” role using ink-free printing.
It presents vibrant, makeup-accurate imagery with a realistic naked-eye 3D effect that blends culture with technology.
🌈 Suspension Optical Label
This label is based on advanced micro-nano structural light field modulation. It controls the behavior of light reflection, refraction, and incidence on the material surface to produce a floating 3D visual effect.
🫧 Diffraction Lens Shaking Text
This sticker is produced using a photolithography-engraved colored microlens array. The lens size ranges from 0.3 – 0.8mm, depending on the font.
When moved side to side or up and down, it creates a vibrant, shifting color animation.
🌟 Simulated Reflective Holographic Effect
Combining geometric depth, light-shadow play, and decolorization techniques, this label uses white-light bases and colorful overlays to emphasize 3D visuals.
Dynamic superline patterns in the background further enrich the overall motion and clarity.
Why Micro-Nano Optical Anti-Counterfeiting Matters
Optical anti-counterfeiting stickers do more than authenticate a product—they uphold brand integrity and market order.
Unlike digital encryption, this physical method is built on nano-scale structures that are nearly impossible to duplicate, making it a true “physically unclonable function” in anti-counterfeiting technology.
At IMAGE TECH, we remain dedicated to continuous innovation. Our R&D team actively develops new micro-nano optical products to meet the growing needs of industries ranging from product packaging to high-security documentation.
