Cards are mainly manufactured from sheets of laminated PVC although other
materials can be supplied. These are pre-printed by digital, lithographic, or screen methods, in up
to 8 colours and the pre-print is fully protected by a laminate. Chips are inserted using an
automatic robotic process ensuring consistent high quality. Chips for both contact and contactless
are checked pre and post-lamination.
We test to ISO standards and all cards may be personalised using our comprehensive
bureau services. Additionally HICO and LOCO magnetic stripes including Watermark® can be applied and
encoded, along with signature stripes. For additional security holograms can be added as can other
security features.
Most cards we produce are pre-printed and/or personalised with encoding
information to our customers’ requirements.
