Behind the Anti-Counterfeit Hologram on the Udon Thani International Horticultural Expo 2026 Ticket
How the holographic foil on Udon Thani International Horticultural Expo 2026 tickets helps prevent counterfeiting, and which anti-counterfeit foil is right for you
The Udon Thani International Horticultural Expo 2026 runs for 134 days across more than 1,030 rai of the Nong Dae wetland, with over 3.6 million visitors expected. A ticket run on that scale needs a way to verify genuine tickets that is both fast and reliable.
That is why the shimmering holographic foil strip on each ticket isn’t there just for looks. It is what staff use to check that a ticket is genuine, and the holographic foil on it is a product of Trio Trading.
Trio Trading’s holographic foil strip, hot-stamped on an admission ticket to the Udon Thani International Horticultural Expo 2026. This type of ticket is issued only to visitors who buy at the venue.
Why a holographic strip?
Tickets used by large numbers of people need anti-counterfeiting that meets several requirements at once, and a holographic strip is one of the few options that meets them all.
- Hard to counterfeit: Even when photocopied or reprinted on an ordinary printer, the foil’s distinctive rainbow shimmer cannot be reproduced.
- Quick to verify: Staff can check it by eye without any extra equipment, so entry is not slowed down.
- Controlled costs: Printers use the hot stamping machines they already have, with no investment in new machinery, which suits large print runs.
- Added value: The rainbow shimmer makes the ticket look more premium and trustworthy.
A wide range of holographic patterns from Trio
Trio’s holographic foils come in many styles, from shattered-glass, glitter and rainbow-line patterns to a range of colors, adding dimension and standout as well as anti-counterfeit protection for print and packaging.
There is also transparent holographic foil, which keeps the text or image underneath visible, suitable for basic anti-counterfeit protection. ++See all Trio holographic foils++
Standard patterns are available on the open market, so they suit basic protection. For products that would suffer serious damage if counterfeited, advanced protection is worth considering.
Advanced anti-counterfeit protection
Security Foil is anti-counterfeit foil with a pattern Trio designs exclusively for each customer, in 2D or 3D.
- Unique to your brand: It is not sold on the market, so counterfeiters cannot obtain the same foil.
- Text or logos built in: Such as your brand name, logo or the word GENUINE, making authenticity easier to check.
- 3D images: Add depth that is difficult to replicate.
- Works on existing machines: Printers can still use their current hot stamping equipment.
Optional security features
Features you can verify with the naked eye
- 3D Effect with Animation: 3D images with real depth that move as the viewing angle changes
- Micro Switch Effect: images that switch form, at sizes as small as 300 microns
- Four Channels Switching: up to four distinct images that switch in turn
- Letter Lens Effect: lettering hidden in a lens that appears only at the correct angle
Features verified with a magnifier or dedicated reader
- Nano Text: lettering as small as 25 microns, visible at 100× magnification
- Covert Laser Readable Image/Text: hidden images or text revealed only with a dedicated reader
Combining several levels of features helps consumers tell genuine from fake with greater confidence.
Many assume anti-counterfeit foil is expensive. But the foil covers only a small area of the product, so the cost per piece is small compared with the product’s value and with the damage counterfeiting can cause, from lost sales to lost brand trust. This is why packaging and labels of leading brands, vouchers, certificates and even government documents use anti-counterfeit holograms.
Which one? It depends on your budget
Both types protect against counterfeiting and work on any job, from tickets and labels to packaging. They differ in the level of protection and the budget required.
- Limited budget or general print jobs: Standard or transparent holographic foil, in stock and ready to choose from our catalog.
- Jobs where counterfeiting would cause serious damage: Custom Security Foil. It requires additional budget for design and made-to-order production, but the pattern is unique to your brand.
