Secure Diploma Blanks & Graduation Certificates
A diploma is issued once in a lifetime — which is precisely what makes it a target. Forged academic credentials are a global problem: they mislead employers, damage institutions and devalue the qualifications of genuine graduates. A diploma that cannot be verified is not a credential — it is a liability.
ZORYA SECURITY PRINTING produces secure diploma blanks and graduation certificates for universities, colleges and academic institutions. We supply government-regulated and custom formats for domestic use and for export, with security features matched to each client's risk profile and regulatory requirements.

Security Paper
- Grammage from 150 to 250 gsm depending on document type;
- two-tone or multi-tone watermark (custom design);
- visible and/or invisible security fibres with UV fluorescence;
- UV-dull paper — no base fluorescence, so UV security elements read cleanly;
