Also referred to as PVC plastic cards, these are available in 
various shapes and sizes, with the most common being the same 
size and thickness as a standard credit card. Most businesses are 
turning to these eco-friendly plastic cards to grow their business 
due to their durability and hard-to-break features, thereby 
replacing the traditional paper cards that are prone to damage. 
Some of the most popular are mentioned below:
Identification Cards & Security Cards
Identification cards and security cards are some of the most 
commonly used cards in educational institutions, commercial 
organisations or industrial establishments. These cards are 
needed to identify employees, guests or students, providing 
security against intruders. 
A few organisations buy their PVC cards blank and get their logo, 
name, ID number and possibly a photograph or other contact 
information printed outside. Some of these Identification cards 
can take the form of visitor badges; security access passes, photo 
ID badges and much more based on the organisation’s 
requirements.

With the popularity of in-person events recently, membership or 
event access cards are gaining importance. These easy-entry 
cards are another type of blank PVC card that is often printed 
onsite. It will be a cost-effective benefit if you can manage to 
keep all the dynamic information that changes from card to card. 
These RFID-made membership cards are also often used as VIP 
access cards for events or trade shows.
