Abstract: A fluorescent composition for the securement of a product, and the method for the securement of a product, which includes the step of preparing the fluorescent composition and a securement step by applying the fluorescent composition to at least a portion of the product.

Abstract: Compounds for use in the textile field, and more particularly the use of compounds of the 4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene family for the manufacture of fluorescent fibers, the fluorescent compound being chosen from those of formula I: Also, processes for producing the fluorescent fibers and also to the uses thereof, notably for the provision of security to products.

Abstract: An optical marking device including at least a first layer and a second layer disposed at least partially opposite each other, at least one of the first and second layers having an optically variable element being able to change colour between a first colour and a second colour, the first and second colours contrasting from a colour of the other layer in such a way that when the optically variable element displays the first colour, the first layer is visible and when the optically variable element displays the second colour, the second colour is visible, or when the optically variable element displays the first colour, the second layer is visible and when the optically variable element displays the second colour, the first layer is visible.
