Crane Authentication is delighted to launch PROFOUND® FLEX
High-security, harvest-resistant labels – powered by our flagship micro-optics technology.
Designed for brand owners seeking to safeguard their brand revenue and reputation, PROFOUND® labels transform products and packaging into a powerful tool for brand protection.
PROFOUND® FLEX takes this a step further. Engineered for brands that face real threats from label harvesting, it offers heat-shrink, tamper-evident labels with exceptional harvest resistance. In short, PROFOUND® FLEX stops counterfeiters from reusing genuine labels.

Powered by flagship micro-optics technology, PROFOUND® provides labels with layered security and impactful 3D animations that make authentic brands stand out.
Because PROFOUND® is highly resistant to replication, counterfeiters may attempt to reuse the original label to make fake products appear genuine. PROFOUND® FLEX is engineered to prevent this. Unlike traditional tamper-evident labels, it reacts to heat by visibly shrinking – eliminating any chance of reuse.
Key features of PROFOUND® FLEX:
- Unique heat-shrinking design - visibly shrinks and distorts when exposed to heat, preventing reuse and counterfeiting.
- High security and harvest resistant - provides the same layered security and impactful 3D animations from the PROFOUND® family in a tamper-evident label.
- Offers robust packaging protection - ideal for primary and secondary packaging in industries where harvest resistance is critical, such as pharmaceuticals, tobacco, industrial, beauty, and electronics.
- Sustainability through secure disposal - FLEX supports responsible packaging by ensuring labels cannot be reused or repurposed.
