Product Overview
These multi-feature, premium PVC cards offer a dual-technology solution for organisations requiring both electronic data encoding and manual authentication. Manufactured from high-grade, graphic-quality PVC, each card is equipped with a high-coercivity (Hi-Co) unencoded magnetic stripe on the reverse, alongside a secure matte-white signature strip.
Available in a choice of vibrant core colours, these cards allow businesses to categorise access levels, tiers, or departments visually while maintaining compatibility with legacy swipe systems and manual signature checks.
