Printed Plastic Cards

Our printed plastic cards are the workhorses of events and businesses everywhere — durable, professional, and endlessly versatile.

The Essentials

Our printed plastic cards are the workhorses of events and businesses everywhere — durable, professional, and endlessly versatile.

We print standard CR80 size PVC cards (that's credit card size with rounded corners) using both digital and litho printing methods. Every card is printed on both sides and finished with your choice of matte or gloss — the details that matter.

Make Them Work Harder

A basic card is great. There are also many features and additions that could be of great use.

We can add:

  • Signature panels
  • Magnetic stripes
  • Barcodes and QR codes
  • Individual names (perfect for name badges)
  • Slots or hole punches for lanyard attachment
  • Foil accents
  • Holographic overlays

Whether you're creating employee ID badges, membership cards, event passes, or access credentials, we'll configure them to match your requirements precisely.

Material Options

Not every project needs traditional PVC and we can suggest and advise on alternates that could be more fitting for your particular project.

Standard PVC

The reliable classic. Durable, versatile, and proven.

Eco-Friendly Alternatives

  • Board cards
  • Wood cards
  • Biodegradable plastic
  • Eco-lite (PVC-free and recyclable)
  • Recycled plastic options

Specialty Materials

  • Polyart — the non-tear wonder material
  • Picofilm — lightweight and flexible

Different project, different needs. We'll help you choose the material that fits both your application and your values.

Timing & Sizes

Quick print options are available when time is of the essence.

Standard lead times run 2–3 weeks depending on your artwork specifications and requirements. Need something non-standard? We can do various sizes for event passes and custom applications.
