A mark built into the paper itself.
A private watermark — your mark held in the sheet and revealed when held to the light — a signature that’s part of the paper, not printed on top of it.

Part of the sheet, not printed on it.
Held to the light it appears; lay it flat and it’s invisible. Because it’s part of the sheet, a copier or scanner can’t reproduce it.
A signature and a defense, at once.
Signature
A private mark on stationery, certificates, and correspondence that no one else can carry.
Authenticity
A built-in defense against forgery for finance, legal, and institutional documents.
How a chemical watermark is made.
A chemical watermark is worked into finished stock — so it runs on a wider range of papers, at lower minimums and shorter lead times than a mill-made watermark.
The die
Your mark is cut into a die, sized to the sheet and the placement.
The treatment
A transparentizing agent is worked into the sheet in the shape of the mark, leaving those areas more translucent.
The reveal
Held to the light the mark appears; flat, it disappears — worked into the sheet, not printed on top, so a copier can’t reproduce it.
A mark that’s only yours.
Tell us the mark and the documents it has to protect. We’ll spec the mark, the stock, and the lead time, and quote it.
