Holographic Labels: Custom Laser Origination and Flat Label Construction

Home / Holographic Laser Security Labels

What custom laser origination means for holographic labels

A holographic label is only as distinctive as the optical master behind it. The hologram is originated from your artwork, which means the visual effect is designed for your brand rather than selected from a catalogue. Origination options include laser holographic origination, concave-lens holography, dual-cut phase 3D embossed holography, multi-band laser color-changing metallic thread and rainbow-gradient holographic micro-text. These techniques can be combined on a single label: for example, a rainbow-gradient micro-text background with a concave-lens focal element and a color-changing thread running through the seal area. Because the master is originated for your design, the same optical image can be reused across future orders and applied to different label sizes or materials without re-origination.

Flat holographic label constructions we produce

Our audited main product line covers flat laser hologram labels on self-adhesive substrates. "Flat" here means the optical effect comes from the origination and embossing rather than from a thick depth-effect sticker build. Typical constructions are supplied as self-adhesive stickers in roll or sheet form, die-cut to your shape, with the holographic layer laminated to a pressure-sensitive adhesive and liner. We also produce tamper-evident variants where the label destructs on removal, and serialized variants where variable data is printed over the holographic background. Substrate, adhesive and finish are specified per application; tell us the surface (glass, carton, polymer, foil) and the removal behaviour you need, and we will propose a construction.

Techniques available on a single label

Custom holographic labels often combine several optical features so that a counterfeiter cannot reproduce the label with a single process. The techniques we can integrate include:

• Laser holographic origination – the base optical image, designed to your artwork or logo.
• Concave-lens holography – a lens-like focal element that shifts as the label is tilted.
• Dual-cut phase 3D embossed holography – a flat-construction label with a defined phase effect in the embossed layer.
• Multi-band laser color-changing metallic thread – a thread element that changes colour band by band as viewing angle changes.
• Rainbow-gradient holographic micro-text – micro-text set against a rainbow gradient, readable under magnification.

Layering these features raises the reproduction barrier and gives inspection staff several independent checks: tilt for colour shift, rotate for the lens element, and magnify for micro-text. We can also advise on which combination suits hand inspection versus machine reading, based on the 60+ anti-counterfeiting technologies in our production range.

Factory, audit and capacity

Shenzhen Huaxin Anti-Counterfeiting Technology Co., Ltd. has manufactured security labels in Shenzhen since 2008. The factory occupies 1,500 m² and employs 60–100 people, with monthly capacity of 510,000–1,000,000 labels depending on construction and feature mix. We are audited by TÜV Rheinland (report MIC-ASR262171), and holographic laser security labels are listed among the main products in the factory’s audited supplier profile. For buyers who need to qualify a supplier before tooling, the audit report and sample labels from a previous origination are the usual starting documents.

Ordering process

Send your logo or artwork, the intended application surface, the label size and the inspection method (hand, magnifier or machine). We will confirm which origination techniques suit the design, quote within the price band above, and produce a proof label from the origination for your approval before the full run. Lead time is confirmed at order; repeat orders reuse the same master, so only printing and finishing are scheduled.

To start, request a quote with your artwork and application details, or review the full range of holographic security labels and 3D hologram stickers before deciding on a construction.

FAQ

Can the hologram be originated from our own logo or artwork?

Yes. Laser holographic origination is designed from your artwork or logo, so the optical image is unique to your brand rather than a stock pattern. We will advise on which techniques suit the design during quotation, and the master is retained for repeat orders.

What is the minimum order for a custom holographic label?

The minimum order quantity is 10,000 pieces for our custom holographic laser 3D anti-counterfeiting self-adhesive sticker product. Pricing within the US$0.03–0.08 per piece band depends on size, construction and the feature mix you select.

How do we verify the label before committing to a full run?

We produce a proof label from the origination for your approval before the full production run. You can check the tilt, rotation and magnification features on the physical proof, and the TÜV Rheinland audit report (MIC-ASR262171) is available for supplier qualification.
