How Generic PVC Card Stock is Produced to Deliver High Quality Plastic Cards at Lower Cost
Our generic PVC card stock manufacturer follows this process to ensure minimal handling and high-quality output at lower cost:
- All raw PVC sheets are received in specially wrapped skids. All white PVC sheets are delivered in the final production sheet size to eliminate additional handling for additional cutting, either before lamination or after lamination.
- All blank white cards are produced without clear overlay sheets. This increases the durability of the cards (no de-lamination possible) and no dirt or debris under the lamination (as there is no overlay).
Cards with magnetic stripes are also produced without additional clear overlay sheets. Magnetic stripes are still produced flush mount without the use of an additional clear overlay sheet. This allows our magnetic stripes to retain the same quality and durability characteristics of our standard blank white cards.- Automated platen lamination equipment is used to laminate the sheets. Cassettes of sheets and lamination plates are mechanically moved from loading to heating to cooling to unloading eliminating more handling. Sheets come off of the lamination completely ready for punching.
- Finished sized laminated sheets are taken directly to the card punching machine. No additional sheet cutting between lamination and punch takes place.
- During the card punching process, cards are counted and gathered into bundles of 100 automatically. This punching process is unique to our manufacturer. Cards are taken directly from the card punch banded with a clear band and shrink wrapped in tight bundles of 100 cards. Cards dropping onto a conveyor or gathering in a large magazine only add additional handling for manual gathering, removal, and manual counting into bundles of 100.

- All cards are packaged in white pasteboard sleeves with lids to ensure cleanliness and to protect the cards (sleeve lids) during transport.
