"When Crane opened a new printing facility in Malta in 2017, I seized the opportunity to build and lead a state-of-the-art testing lab, which has since become renowned for its capabilities and expertise."
Curaçao and Sint Maarten Prepare for Launch of New Currency
The Centrale Bank van Curaçao en Sint Maarten (CBCS) enjoyed a significant milestone at Crane Currency’s printing facility in Malta, witnessing the new Caribbean guilder banknotes roll off the presses.
When Are New Banknote Security Features Ready for Use?
For central banks, manufacturability is crucial, and it is essential to ask suppliers the fundamental question: Is this new feature ready for production and public use – or are we at risk of quality failures, delivery delays, and erosion of public trust?
A Modern Approach to Modern Upgrades
Previously, central banks might have addressed new counterfeiting threats with a simple upgrade of security features. Today, central banks are instead embracing a sophisticated approach to banknote modernization.
BANKNOTE SOLUTIONS
By offering customers the full range – from design to print – Crane Currency is unique. With our knowledge and control over the whole process, we advise and create the solutions that best meet the needs of central banks.
