MONITORING (SW) – The complete delivery of an estimated 380 million worth of newly printed banknotes is likely to be completed by the end of next year.
In 2020 Polish Security Printing Works (PWPW) signed a contract to produce 380 million banknotes for Afghanistan (10 AFN, 20 AFN, 50 AFN and 100 AFN). They are produced in modern technology, with anti-soiling coating Fortis Pro and are protected with Coat4Note varnish based on PWPW unique production method, characterized by higher protection against chemical solvents and soiling than its classic counterpart, the Polish Embassy in New Delhi announced.
It said the substrate covered with this varnish is also characterized by a higher grammage, which also positively impacts the physical properties of print. First batch of banknotes was delivered to Kabul last week and the next are scheduled till the end of 2022.
The Polish government has expressed hope the cooperation between the two countries will be fruitful and will grow in the future.
