The result of combining graphic and information technology are the most demanding globaloriented projects that can be quickly adapted to different environments. In addition to graphic security elements, Cetis also develops software for managing personal data and functions as a system integrator. Cetis offers buyers ‘all-in-one’ solutions. The company is aware that innovation is the condition for long-term success. The work of Cetis innovators has been awarded many times, and what is most important, it has received approval in the market.

Competitive advantage

The first Slovenian passport and the first Slovenian money were manufactured at Cetis. Cetis produces and personifies documents, bank cards and lottery games. The Cetis’ systems for capturing and storing data are in operation at Slovene representations abroad and in some African countries. The company enjoys the trust of the most distinguished Slovene and foreign institutions, such as the government of the Republic of Slovenia, banks, insurance companies, telecommunications, and lottery companies at home and abroad.

patented passport solutions Cetis security multilayer protection for a passport data page provides optimum security for travel documents against forgery. It differs from other data page protections by its touch verification feature. CSM disintegrates by chemicals or temperature in case of an attempt to breach personal data.

An attempt at fraud is visible to the naked eye.
