An ID card need not be a primitive security technology, and by incorporating a variety of features you will be able to increase the practicality and effectiveness of ID cards; engineering them to be applicable for a variety of specific requirements.
Printed Laynards
For example, it you want to ensure the portability of a card then you might consider printed lanyards, which will allow the card to hang from a wearer’s neck, thereby optimising wear-ability. Also, as the lanyards are printed, this means that you can, for example, print a company name onto the laynard.
Watermarks
If you want a surefire guard against card cloning, then you could incorporate a “watermark” onto your cards (i.e a unique mark that can’t be cloned). You may assume that such an effective security feature may come at a premium, but in fact, with a card printer accessory like the “Holokote” from Magicard, maximum card security is affordable.
PVC Cards
For an ID card to be truly successful it should have a certain level of ruggedness, especially if it used day-to-day such as in a school setting. With this in mind PVC cards represent a simple solution to the critical problem of card durability, and not only that, but at ID Management Systems we are able to offer biodegradable PVC cards – perfect for the environmentally conscious.
At ID Management Systems we understand everything there is to know about identification cards, and that is why we are able to offer you everything you need to optimise their use.
