CertiMark represents the ultimate answer to the counterfeiting of documents, that is becoming increasingly important since today's forgers can avail themselves of editing scanners and printers to create copies that are indistinguishable from the original document.
 

INTACT SEAL

INTACTCOUNTERFOIL

Properties

Each exemplar of CertiMark is unmistakably distinguished by an ordinal number, foolproof protected from tampering, and it is generated and printed in the inner seal by a computer which unerringly eliminates the chance of duplicates.
Such number is repeated twice on each exemplar and the correspondence of two numbers is to be regarded as the proof that CertiMark has not been replaced or tampered.
The number printed within the transparent area is automatically transferred on the document or parcel on which the seal is placed. The same number is also featured on the counterfoil provided with the seal.
CertiMark embodies the Cryptoprint® system's safety.
Whenever the seal gets removed, the red security bars break and a non-ignorable warning message, latent by intact seal, is displayed on the surface underneath to visibly void the seal. Thereafter restoring the original seal is impossible. CertiMark is pressure-sensitive adhesive.
To better comply with specific requirements for major industrial and administrative applications CertiMark can be partially or fully personalized with an ordinal dedicated numbering, magnetic stripes, bar codes.

Purposes

CertiMark is the exclusive, not reproducible, individual, numeric-reference seal to demonstrate authenticity and enhance safety on all documents of official, legal and private relevance.
In attesting formal character, CertiMark protects original documents, authentic copies transcripts, acknowledgements against falsification, substitution, desktop forgery.
CertiMark is used both in private and professional sphere on agreements, deals, contracts, letters, offers, purchase orders, invoices, money orders, all negotiable documents, bills of landing, air bills, consignment notes, warehouse receipts.
CertiMark is also employed on letters of reference, letters of intent, powers of attorney, gifts, legacies, wills, membership cards, diplomas, assessments, insurance policies, stated accounts vouchers, balance sheets, stock certificates, bonds.
In the official use CertiMark thwarts forgery of identity documents, passports, visas, immigration cards, licenses, certificates, acts, deeds, treasury bills.
The identification of the original substrate is validly achieved also by positioning the seal, when preferable, on the back of the documents.
The seal protects documents also from type and handwritten alterations on the original substrate, since such alterations can be always ascertained through the comparison with the original exemplar, marked with the identically numbered counterfoil, kept in the files. The counterfeiting of documents is then frustrated.
CertiMark is also used on documents printed from electronic archives to attribute formal evidence to definitively approved texts and distinguish them from database working copies and elaborations.
