CCL Secure

CCL Secure is the global leader in polymer banknote substrate (commonly known as ‘plastic banknotes’), with research and production sites in Australia, Mexico and the UK. Since the first polymer banknote was issued in Australia in 1988, our polymer substrate has been issued on more than 170 denominations and commemorative banknotes around the world. Multiple research projects, often commissioned by central banks, show that polymer substrate banknotes last many times longer, significantly reduce counterfeiting thanks to both the material used and the ability to include advanced security features, and produce up to 48.8% fewer greenhouse gases than their paper counterparts. CCL Secure’s GUARDIAN™ substrate and SPARTAN™ banknotes (designed to save banks from having to use coins instead of notes) are both made using bank-grade polymers. Bank-grade polymers are used for banknotes and no other purpose. CCL Secure: The Polymer Banknote People For further information, please visit www.cclsecure.com
