Security: You Either Get It or You Don’t

In some cases, a printer has to be deemed “worthy” of using an ink company’s product before it can even begin printing the labels. The security of the ink is as important as the security of the label it’s being used to print. “We don’t’ sell our inks to just any printer,” says Jay. SICPA will audit a printer to determine how it will handle SICPA’s inks in house. “We don’t want the bad guys to get a hold of our ink,” he says. SICPA will send representatives to a facility, talk to the top management, and make suggestions for how to best protect SICPA’s products within its plant. One example is the plant’s waste stream.
