Material Guide
PVC
Our PVC cards are made from quality, durable plastic and are available with a Matt or Gloss finish. Unless otherwise stated, our PVC cards are 720 microns, the standard thickness of a credit-card.
Biodegradable PVC
Our Biodegradable PVC cards contain an additive that means they will degrade and wear down in microbe rich environments such as biologically active landfill. In terms of print finish, you won’t notice much difference to a regular PVC card.
Unless otherwise stated, our Biodegradable PVC cards are 720 microns, the same thickness as a standard credit-card. They can also be recycled where facilities exist, but not in standard household recycling.
100% Recycled PVC
Our 100% Recycled PVC cards are made from 100% recycled plastic (R-PVC), with a 100% recycled film applied for durability. This post-consumer recycled PCV material is sifted, washed, sterilised and separated to remove contaminants, resulting in a quality material.
Unless otherwise specified, they are 720 microns, the same thickness as a standard credit-card. They can also be recycled in the correct facilities.
Paperboard
Where paperboard is available, this is made from 270gsm paperboard manufactured in the UK from an FSC-certified supplier. They feel a little thinner than a standard credit card.
Our paperboard cards are fully recyclable after use in your standard household recycling.
