German quality is evident not only in the automotive industry, but also in the production of plastic. For 10 years now, the company "Country of Cards" has been testing equipment and materials for the production of high-quality plastic cards at its production facility. During this time, we have realized that Germany has become the clear leader in the production of plastic. Why we prefer a German manufacturer, you can see for yourself right now.
How to check quality without leaving your workplace?
We are all happy owners of plastic cards of one company or another. Therefore, you can take out all your cards at any time, compare them and recognize the true quality. What can be seen with the naked eye?
• Wear resistance. If after a few years you find that the edges of the card resemble a tattered book, then you have been saved a lot. Real German plastic and laminate are distinguished by increased wear resistance. Cards made from it are not subject to mechanical impact and ultraviolet radiation for a long time. If you use a fuel card and keep it on the dashboard of your car, you will easily understand the difference.
• Fading. German quality of plastic cards is especially noticeable in the brightness of colors. Since it is on this type of plastic that paint lays down best and does not wear off longer. The blank made of German plastic is significantly whiter, which affects the quality of color transfer during printing. Low-quality plastic begins to show through blue or any other color.
• Thickness. The distinctive feature of German plastic is its density and thickness. You can check this by bending the card (it is not necessary to break it). Good plastic is difficult to bend and springs back. Other types of plastic may even deform when bent and remain bent.
What is the secret of success?
It's time to reveal the most important thing: the material for our cards is produced by Klöckner Pentaplast, a company that supplies plastic for medical institutions, for food packaging, and of course for us, the manufacturers of plastic cards. It has become a world leader thanks to its constant desire to improve quality. It is by adhering to high standards, such as those of Klöckner Pentaplast, that our company has also been able to take a leading position in production in Russia and enter the world market.
