Sankt Augustin, February 2013. It is commonly known that brand products are being imitated and distributed. To document the proof of original RAL fan decks in the future, RAL takes the offensive from 2013 on.

The complete RAL color card portfolio will be equipped with a security system from now on: a four-step four-stage forgery-proof security hologram. The hologram contains visible features such as three dimensional pictures and real colour elements, as well as hidden features.

As of March 1, 2013, every fan deck product released by RAL will receive this extremely forgery-proof hologram that shows the RAL originality.
