Business Wire
Standard Register (NYSE: SR), a leading provider of workflow,
content and analytics solutions, announced today that it has been
awarded a patent for a chemically reactive security ink that helps
mitigate or reveal certain types of document fraud by preventing
the chemical alteration or “washing” of secure documents.
The chemically reactive ink masks a warning word or message
printed on secure documents. When a check, receipt, label or other
item is chemically altered or “washed,” the special ink is removed
to reveal a hidden word or message. The reactive security ink
deters individuals from altering the dollar amount on checks, cash
receipts and other secure documents, which could previously be
accomplished by erasing portions of text using common household
chemicals such as acetone found in nail polish remover.
The patent (8,622,436) covers the chemically reactive ink, the
method of using this ink, and security documents that incorporate
the ink. The ink was developed in Standard Register’s research and
development labs in Dayton, Ohio, by chief scientist Dr. Rajendra
Mehta and technical director Stephen D. Webendorfer.
Standard Register has earned 898 patents since its founding in
1912, many in the area of document security and fraud protection.
The company has 102 active patents in the areas of labels and
form/label combinations, in-mold labeling, software and/or
equipment, security print and specialty inks, and business
forms.
“Helping protect banks, stores and manufacturers against fraud
and counterfeiting is an important way that Standard Register
advances the reputation of its customers,” said Joe Klenke,
executive vice president of Advanced Technologies & Channels.
“We are proud of our history of innovation in this field. Dr. Mehta
himself has generated 57 patents over his long career with our
company, many in the area of document security.”
