Data page

Due to the construction of the data page and its integration into the booklet, physical splitting or alteration is clearly visible and cannot be reversed. Incorporation of the data page into the passport is secure and durable due to the polycarbonate material fusion and its hinge technology.

Selection of binding for increased security

The method of bonding data pages into passports is one of the key aspects for ensuring protection against copying and counterfeiting. CETIS is one of the few manufacturers of data pages in the world with its own patented solutions, which have been tested for efficiency, including:

CETIS SECURITY data page

Patented binding of the polycarbonate data page into the passport booklet provides secure, simple and durable integration of polycarbonate with paper and assures document integrity.

CETIS-patented binding technology (integration) of a polycarbonate data page into a passport booklet provides secure, simple and durable integration and assures document integrity. It is unique due to the combination of the paper and polycarbonate, with reinforcement stripe (passport data page), which continues on the back (data page is integrated as part of the visa pages not just as an insert).

Features:

• Paper is preserved as a binding element, as it is a very resistant material, therefore the passport integrity is preserved.
• Reinforcing stripe is set under the sharp polycarbonate edge to protect the integrity of the document against the sharp edges of the polycarbonate material.
• Laser die cuts and high quality binder provide a high level of protection against delamination and alteration.
• The binding provides simple integration of the data page into the booklet.
• Instead of a short hinge on the back, this solution enables having the entire paper page (visa page) on the back.
• Solvent resistant. 

Lamination plates

To assure excellent lamination of polycarbonate passport data pages, polycarbonate ID cards, driving licences and other security documents CETIS uses the latest technology for engraving high-quality laminations plates.
