Demetallized hologram labels are advanced security stickers created through a specialized process that selectively removes metal from specific areas of the holographic film. Unlike standard hologram labels where the metalized layer is continuous, demetallized holograms feature precisely patterned transparent windows where the metal has been removed—creating unique optical effects that are extremely difficult to replicate.
This sophisticated manufacturing process creates a powerful security solution with:
- Transparent windows – See-through areas that allow underlying packaging to show through
- Custom patterns – Logos, text, or designs created by metal removal
- Enhanced security – Complex manufacturing process that counterfeiters cannot easily duplicate
- Dual authentication – Visual features visible in both reflected and transmitted light
- Brand differentiation – Distinctive appearance that sets your products apart

Holographic Layer
23 or 36 micron PET film with custom holographic design and security features
Metalized Layer
Vacuum-deposited aluminum or other metallic coating
Demetallization
Precise removal of metal in specific patterns using chemical or laser etching
Transparent Windows
Areas where metal is removed become see-through, allowing light to pass through
Your custom holographic master is created with your brand elements and security features & The holographic design is replicated onto high-quality PET film
A metalized layer (typically aluminum) is vacuum-deposited onto the film & A protective photoresist layer is applied in the pattern where metal should remain
Chemical or laser etching removes metal from unprotected areas & The protective layer is removed, leaving the final demetallized pattern
Adhesive is applied and labels are die-cut to your specifications & Each label is inspected for pattern accuracy and optical quality
This combination of precision metal removal and advanced holography creates labels that are visually distinctive and exceptionally difficult to counterfeit.

What is a demetallized hologram label?
A demetallized hologram label is a security sticker where the metalized layer has been selectively removed in specific patterns. This creates transparent windows that allow light to pass through, creating unique optical effects that are extremely difficult to counterfeit.
How are demetallized holograms different from standard holograms?
Standard holograms have a continuous metalized layer. Demetallized holograms have areas where the metal has been removed, creating transparent patterns. This adds an extra layer of security and visual complexity.
What patterns can be created through demetallization?
We can create logos, text, geometric patterns, and any custom pattern you specify. Fine details down to 0.5mm are possible.
Are demetallized holograms more secure than standard holograms?
Yes. The demetallization process requires specialized equipment and expertise that counterfeiters rarely possess. The combination of holography and selective metal removal creates a multi-layered security feature.
Can demetallized holograms be combined with other security features?
Absolutely. We can combine demetallization with void tamper technology, destructible substrates, microtext, UV markers, and other advanced security features.
What industries use demetallized hologram labels?
Pharmaceuticals, currency, government documents, premium liquor, high-value electronics, luxury goods, and any application requiring the highest level of security.
