Identity cards

A certificate is a subject that certifies the status of its carrier. In advertising, a certificate may be called differently: passes, credentials, identification document and they relate to printing. The purpose of this product is to give privileges to its owner, whether it is a pass to a protected institution or the right to receive benefits or subsidies. Depending on the importance of the pass, they can be protected from counterfeit by various printing technologies and the production of certificates. But first, find out about their different types.

The most common type of ID is a credential. So called the typical certificate of deputies, officials, civil servants. They look like little books and are hard or soft. The production of a type identification card is made of interlaced cardboard, covered with leather, leatherette or vinyl on top, depending on the budget of the customer. The most standard size is 65 * 95 mm. If you put foam rubber between the skin and cardboard, the crust will become “soft”, if made without foam rubber - “hard”, everything is simple. The outer side of the crust is printed with a blind emboss when the image or text is simply extruded. Or convex foil when they are imprinted with colored foil, which is most often the color of silver or gold. The inside of the ID is printed on paper and then glued to the crust.

The second most popular type is plastic IDs. Production of plastic IDs is done according to the technology of production of plastic cards, but with personalization and elements of protection against fakes. Plastic passes are often made with microchips for admission to protected objects by scanning the scanner. Also, plastic badges can be protected from counterfeiting with an encoding tape, barcode, signature panel, or tangier grids, holograms, or even watermarks that are more difficult to manufacture. There may be several levels of protection, which makes falsifying an almost impossible task.

Printing IDs, passes can be done on plain coated paper, followed by lamination. This technology is suitable for temporary or low-budget solutions.
