Teslin is a tear-resistant and tamper-resistant print media based on hydrogen and carbon that is used as a secure layer in ID credentials. The layer of Teslin is printed on prior to laminating the ID.
“The composite card that you would make with Teslin is actually going to give you better security, durability and functionality of your integrated circuit because of the composition of Teslin,” says Pamela Campbell, the global manager for Teslin products. Teslin is used in the U.S. and UK e-passports as well as 35 others and is going to be in the Mexico national ID.
