Life at Crane Currency
We know our company culture is like currency for our employees, it only means something if we truly value it.

Our People Matter
"To succeed, we must be a team. We must bring out the best in each other, look after each other, and focus on safety above all else. We must respect each other and blend the unique backgrounds and talents of different people. We need to celebrate the success of people when we win and focus on improving the process, never blaming an individual when things don’t go perfectly well."
- Sam Keayes
Senior Vice President, Security and Authentication Technologies, Crane NXT

200 Years of Innovation
Our Story
Every banknote printed aims to reflect the many generations of innovation and skill that have characterized this business for over 200 years.
In the course of our history, Crane Currency has experienced good times as well as wars and depression without ever losing its way. A company doesn’t survive this long by accident. It takes continuous commitment to meeting the evolving needs of the customer.
Responding with quality, value-adding products – and anticipating needs in order to develop and deliver solutions in time. That continues to be the driver behind Crane Currency’s ongoing investment in research and development, pursuing advanced technology, and spearheading new ideas rather than following them.
