PVC
PVC is polyvinyl chloride, the principle material used in the fabrication of almost all plastic ID cards. PVC cards are now the industry standard when it comes to designing and printing cards for an ID program. Some ID card printers work with PVC plastic cards that have been modified, but for most ID card uses such as security badges, employee ID cards, or student IDs, plastic is the preferred ID card material due to its durability.
PVC Cards for Multiple Functions
When a PVC ID card is encrypted with a chip, backed by a magnetic stripe, or printed with a barcode, its functionality increases enormously. It stops being just a means for identification, and transforms into a tool for transactions and management.
In fact, when the right ID badge printer is combined with the right ID card software, the simple PVC identity card can become an access key, a credit card, or even a time and attendance tracking system.
