Authenticated and TE cognac bottles for Asia

Cognac Ferrand uses several protective layers to secure its bottles of Landy Cognac headed to Asia.

In order to protect its brand and its consumers, Cognac Ferrand, Charente, France, asked ArjoWiggins Security (www.security.arjowiggins.com) to secure its Landy Cognac bottles. Both companies worked together to develop a label that combines authentication and tamper-evident functions.

Each cognac bottle destined for the Asian market is delivered with this security label. Printed on an ultra-fragile substrate (Synthetic Tamper Evident Security, or STES), the label contains level 2 and level 3 security features (for more on this, see note at end) that can be authenticated by the Cognac Ferrandís inspectors using dedicated equipment.

Placed on the cap, any removal attempt delaminates the label's face stock. It is then impossible to remove the label from the substrate in one piece in order to reposition or reuse it.

Developed entirely by ArjoWiggins Security (graphic design and production), the labels are provided ready for application.

For comparison, Landy Cognac's Desir (shown) is also available at better retail stores throughout the United States where it retails for $39.99. This product was introduced in 2005.
