The Dyestar C-A7-BK is a high-specification PVC card featuring a sleek, jet-black gloss finish. Unlike standard cards that have a white centre, these are manufactured with a solid black core. This ensures that the card remains entirely black even if the edges become worn. Crucially, these cards are food-safe certified, making them the premier choice for the UK hospitality and retail sectors, as well as high-end corporate identification.

Key Product Highlights

  • Solid Black Core: Eliminates the "white edge" typical of standard cards, providing a seamless, premium aesthetic across the entire card profile.

  • Food-Safe Certified: Specifically tested and safe for direct contact with food, making them ideal for deli counters, bakeries, and butchers.

  • High-Gloss Finish: A reflective, jet-black surface that provides a striking background for metallic or white text.

  • Standard CR80 Size: Manufactured to 85.60mm x 53.98mm, ensuring perfect compatibility with all standard UK price tag holders and ID accessories.

Primary Applications

The C-A7-BK is a versatile solution for organisations that demand both style and safety:

  • Retail Price Tags: The industry standard for high-end food displays in bakeries, fishmongers, and delis. They are wipe-clean, durable, and professional.

  • Buffet & Event Labelling: Used by UK hotels and caterers to label allergens and food types on buffet lines elegantly.

  • VIP & Tiered Membership: Frequently used for "Black Tier" or "Platinum" memberships in health clubs and private member associations.

  • Executive Staff ID: A sophisticated choice for corporate identification, particularly when paired with a silver or gold print.

  • Dark-Themed Branding: Perfect for brands with a monochrome aesthetic looking for a card that matches their identity perfectly.

Printing Advice for Black Gloss Cards

The Dyestar C-A7-BK is compatible with all leading ID card printers, including Magicard, Zebra, and Evolis. For the best results on a black base, we recommend:

  1. Monochrome White Ribbons: This produces the classic "chalkboard" look that is highly popular for food retail and price labelling.

  2. Metallic Gold & Silver: Using metallic resin ribbons on a black gloss background creates an ultra-premium, luxury feel for VIP and executive cards.

  3. Hygienic Maintenance: For food-safe applications, these cards should be cleaned with food-safe sanitiser. The gloss finish is non-porous and highly resistant to moisture.
