ID Cards have been a popular form of identification for university and college students for a number of years. However, we are seeing an increase in popularity across many schools and academy’s.

A student ID card often contains data about the individual and a form of photo ID on a plastic ID card. However, due to the encoding capabilities now available through many ID card printers the use and expectation from a student ID card is growing.

Here at cards-x we have invested significantly into our Evohold card holder recycle program as well as launching a biodegradable and recyclable card holder product range. One area we have been developing is our range of sustainable PVC cards, and the reduction of single-use plastics.

Sadly Direct-to-card and retransfer ID card printers require a plastic card in order for the print process to work! Which got us thinking… what alternatives are out there?
