Capability

NPA focuses on creating outstanding customer experiences by understanding and addressing specific challenges and problems to come up with banknote and passport solutions that make our customer’s lives easier. Across the last decade, NPA has invested for the future, and today has one of the world’s most advanced high security print lines, the capability of which is evident with Australia’s new Next Generation Banknote series and the current Australian P Series range of travel documents.

NPA regularly brings first time technology to polymer banknotes based on our strength in industrialising innovative security technologies. Importantly, NPA’s unique history in producing highly complex polymer banknotes has allowed the organisation to develop leading-edge know-how and experience in its design, development and manufacturing processes.

NPA maintains a strong presence across the world in bidding for and winning some extremely interesting and exciting banknote series and projects.  We have a lot of advice and experience to offer central banks who are looking to create a banknote or banknote series that will remain strongly counterfeit-resistant, resilient, and highly functional for a minimum 12-15 year period.

NPA continues to produce the chip-enabled Australian ePassport for the DFAT, under a long-term supply agreement. With an established track record of achievement to rigorous standards, NPA is looking to develop export markets for these leading-edge passport booklets and associated service opportunities, particularly throughout the Asia and Asia Pacific region.
