It is difficult for a modern person to imagine his life without plastic cards. Discount cards, bank cards, gym membership, work passes - they are sure to be found in every wallet. Each of them is unique in its own way - in color, design or lamination, which protects the card from scratches and chips. Thanks to the laminated plates, you can not be afraid that the barcode or card number will be overwritten and not visible.

Types of plastic cards lamination
Lamination can be matte and glossy. Matte plastic cards benefit from scratch resistance. This is important, because the cards are constantly in contact with money, keys, office supplies that are lying around in the bag. When the first scratches appear on a glossy card, the matte surface remains intact. Matte plastic cards go well with dark saturated colors - black, brown, blue, green. Such products are suitable for the VIP segment: managers and companies that value their image. Spectacular matte surface looks presentable and expensive. In addition, fingerprints are almost invisible on matte cards.

Lamination of plastic cards
Glossy lamination also has several advantages. It goes well with bright and light colors, emphasizing the colorfulness and saturation of shades. The gloss looks great on metallic gold or silver plastics, and is also well suited for embossing. Most often, glossy lamination is ordered for discount cards of stores in order to attract the attention of buyers with brightness and brilliance.

When choosing lamination, several factors should be taken into account: the scope of the card, design, color, the presence of barcodes or embossed symbols. Each layout is individual, so our specialists will always help you choose the best solution for your business.
