Color can attract and appeal like nothing else, and with our 4-color process, the spectrum is your playground. This printing method allows for a full range of colors-vivid, deep, and brilliant-to capture the essence of your brand.

Our technology ensures that even the most subtle color differences are caught and represented, making no compromise on the final product's look and feel.

For those who need precise color matches, Pantone is the answer. Renowned for its color matching system, Pantone secures consistency across all your branding materials. With Pantone, you guarantee that your brand colors are replicated perfectly, every time.

It's ideal for logos and brand colors that need to stay consistent regardless of the medium, and PCID has this down to a science.

The tactile feel of our plastic cards speaks volumes about their quality. They are built to last, resist fading, and maintain their luster through countless handshakes and wallet storages. And while we're on quality, remind yourself that recycling, where possible, is a good practice to assist in waste management.

Linking durability with design, we ensure that what you hand out reflects your business's solidity and aesthetic.

Communication is key and with Plastic Card ID 's plastic cards, the message is clear and vibrant. As a versatile tool, these cards can function as loyalty cards, access passes, or promotional items, extending your brand's reach with each use.

Your cards could be the spark that ignites customer interest and loyalty. This is an investment in your brand's visual legacy.

Litho printing, the choice of professionals seeking high-quality print runs, offers unbeatable vibrancy and clarity. And PCID maximizes this excellence with every card. But hey, what does that all really mean for you? It means that the final product-your cards-will look nothing short of stellar.

Our expertise in the litho printing process means that complexities become simplicities, and your ideas come to life with precise execution. The cards we create are more than just promotional items; they're a showcase of your brand's essence.

Litho printing uses plates to transfer ink onto paper - or in our case, high-grade plastic. The result? Even, consistent coverage and unmatched color vibrancy. Here's the special sauce: the water-repellent areas of the plate hold ink while the rest repels it, leading to impeccable prints every time.

And for those who love the technical side, the modern marvels of lithographic technology are on full display in every job we do. Rest assured, your cards will mirror your professional image through our cutting-edge litho printing techniques.

When it comes to print runs, litho printing is the sweet spot for larger quantities without sacrificing quality. It's the choice when the finer details matter-and let's be honest, they always do.

Not only is it cost-effective, but it also gives you consistent quality from the first card to the last. No surprises, just trusty reliability all the way through.

One word: versatility. Litho printing's ability to handle a multitude of colors, including specific Pantone hues, means that your brand standards are never compromised. We ensure that your color schemes are reproduced faithfully, serving up a visual feast with every print.

Plastic Card ID has mastered matching the colors you envision to the colors we print, ensuring a no-nonsense, accurate representation of your brand identity.

With litho, variety is certainly not in short supply. Whether you're looking at business cards, gift cards, or any other kind of plastic card, our litho approach is flexible to meet your unique print requirements.

There's precision, and then there's Pantone precision. When your brand demands the exact shade, the very hue that defines it, accept no substitutes. Pantone's color matching is laser-focused, delivering the same color intensity and accuracy time after time.

At PCID , we've honed our eyes and our technology to nail down those distinct Pantone colors, ensuring your brand identity remains intact and impressive. No variations, no off-shades, just the true colors that represent you.

Pantone isn't just about consistency; it's a guardian of your brand's visual identity. It protects and enforces the unique DNA of your color signatures, and we take that responsibility seriously.

Our dedication to color fidelity means your cards will carry your authentic brand signature, proudly and precisely.

Here's the lowdown: Pantone colors are pre-mixed, offering a vast catalog of shades that ensure uniformity. Meanwhile, the 4-color process builds hues from CMYK-cyan, magenta, yellow, and key (black)-which allows for a beautiful range but can vary slightly in match precision.

Depending on your need for specificity or versatility, we're equipped to advise and print using the method that best suits your project's requirements.

With Pantone, your cards can feature shades and tints that raise the bar for your print materials. From subtle pastels to vivid neons, trust that the fidelity of your chosen colors will be unwavering.

And it's not just about single colors; Pantone allows for gradients and shades that can give your cards a depth and dimension they've never had before.

Whether it's on membership cards or event passes, Pantone's precision comes into play to elevate your brand's aesthetic. It's about taking the guesswork out and putting the standout in.

Your cards can be the tangible reminders of your brand's quality, the little ambassadors that carry your image forward with confidence.

Not all heroes wear capes-some come in the form of plastic cards! Whether it's for a coffee shop loyalty program or a sleek business card, our offerings meet the mark of variety and quality.
