Meet the Lynch mob … A couple of weeks ago we all got dressed up for baby Oran’s christening - my older son is already a snappier dresser than me 😄. Having 3 kids under 4 has not helped with my grey hair, but inside they are keeping me young!!   #familyfirst #familyfun

According to the European Commission in 2022, 820 million people in the EU travelled by air. As passenger and aircraft movements have increased, security risks have multiplied and the nature and complexity of the threats have intensified. Travel documents must ensure that the vast majority of travellers, who are bona fide, are able to cross the border in a smooth manner, while also enabling border agents to prevent unauthorised entry. As a leading security printer and security solutions provider, we work with a network of specialist trusted partners to design and supply innovative world class travel and identity documents.
