IQ Structures and Hueck Folien Launch Nanoswitch™

On July 20, 1969, more than 500 million people around the world watched the Moonlanding, the ‘great leap for mankind’ - a technical feat that opened new horizons for humanity.

55 years later, IQ Structures (IQS) and Hueck Folien have paid homage to this historic event with a unique design to ring in a new era of banknote security stripe solutions - Nanoswitch™, which was launched at the Banknote Conference in a highly entertaining presentation, against a backdrop of the iconic David Bowie soundtrack of ‘Ground Control to Major Tom’, by Michael Ritschewald, Business Development Manager at Hueck Folien, and Robert Dvořák, Managing Director of IQS.

The two companies also announced Nanovista™, the brand name for a portfolio of high security features which will be launched by IQS and Hueck Folien, Nanoswitch being the first.
