Welcome to
THE WORLD’S POLYMER CURRENCY EXPERTS
Even in an age of electronic banking, contactless payments and smartphone payment systems, there is still a deep and underlying need for cash as a trusted store of value.
As polymer banknotes play an increasing role in ensuring that billions of people have confidence in the currency they use each day, it’s hardly surprising that CCL Secure is the partner of choice for currency issuing authorities around the world.
Ever since the world’s first polymer banknotes were produced, in 1988, CCL Secure has provided expert support to issuing authorities as they transition to a currency that is stronger, safer, cleaner, greener, and which generate significant cost savings over their lifetime compared to paper banknotes.
We are the world’s experts in polymer banknotes. When you need to know more, talk to us.

The Bank of England’s new £50 note, launched on 25th March, marks the transition of the full series of English notes to GUARDIAN™ polymer substrate. The launch marks the 11th time that a country has transitioned all its banknotes to GUARDIAN polymer.
CCL Secure was awarded this year’s Central Banking Currency Services Initiative Award as a result of the company’s global support for recycling and for wider reductions in its environmental impact.
In 2013, when the Bank of England made the decision to move the £5 and £10 from paper to polymer, the decision was based on 3 years of research into the resilience and quality of different substrates. Eight years later, CCL Secure remains lead substrate supplier to the Bank with world-leading GuardianTM polymer substrate.
Despite the global challenges created by the COVID-19 pandemic, CCL Secure say they have seen polymer banknotes go from strength to strength around the world.
A new 100,000 Livres banknote, issued by Banque du Liban to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the foundation of Lebanon, is one of the most secure in the world.
