Guardian® substrate is the proven alternative to the traditional cotton-paper banknote.

Guardian^® banknote substrate has been issued by more than 30 Central Banks worldwide. There is currently in circulation more than 100 billion security features present in 25 billion Guardian^® banknotes.

Banknotes using Guardian^® substrate are quickly recognised by the public due to the easy-to-authenticate, yet difficult-to-replicate security features that are both distinctive and visually appealing.

Today, the complex integration of security features within the Guardian^® substrate provides Central Banks with the highest level of banknote security available, while offering inspirational and unique design possibilities.
