Standard RPVC Cards
The workhorse of the range. The ISO ID-1 card format, 85.5 × 54 mm — the same size as a bank card, so it fits every standard wallet, printer and reader. Any chip configuration and encoding you need, and any artwork across the full face of the card. Graphics, numbering and other custom work are quoted on the same lead time. Printed on PVC with 70% recycled content. It runs on the same tooling, takes the same finishes and lasts as long as virgin PVC, at the same price — the difference is in what the sheet is made from, not in how the card behaves or what it costs.
Matte Finish RPVC Cards
A non-reflective surface that keeps dark artwork looking solid instead of glassy, and resists the fingerprints and light scuffing that show up fast on a gloss card. The obvious choice for a black or deeply coloured design. Printed on PVC with 70% recycled content. It runs on the same tooling, takes the same finishes and lasts as long as virgin PVC, at the same price — the difference is in what the sheet is made from, not in how the card behaves or what it costs.
Frosted Finish RPVC Cards
A frosted coating with a fine texture you can feel. It grips in the hand rather than sliding, and gives the card a distinct, slightly tactile finish that sets it apart from a standard gloss laminate. Printed on PVC with 70% recycled content. It runs on the same tooling, takes the same finishes and lasts as long as virgin PVC, at the same price — the difference is in what the sheet is made from, not in how the card behaves or what it costs.
Metal Sparkle RPVC Cards
Silver or gold sparkle worked into the card body, so the finish catches the light as it moves. It can cover the whole card or just part of the artwork — a sparkle panel behind a logo, with the rest left flat. Printed on PVC with 70% recycled content. It runs on the same tooling, takes the same finishes and lasts as long as virgin PVC, at the same price — the difference is in what the sheet is made from, not in how the card behaves or what it costs.
Glossy Transparent RPVC Cards
Clear areas with a gloss finish, so parts of the card show whatever is behind them. It removes the background-colour decision entirely and gives the card a different look on every surface it is laid on. Printed on PVC with 70% recycled content. It runs on the same tooling, takes the same finishes and lasts as long as virgin PVC, at the same price — the difference is in what the sheet is made from, not in how the card behaves or what it costs.
Matte Transparent RPVC Cards
Clear card with a matte surface — the look of frosted glass rather than a window. It diffuses what is behind it instead of showing it sharply, which keeps printed elements legible over the clear areas. Printed on PVC with 70% recycled content. It runs on the same tooling, takes the same finishes and lasts as long as virgin PVC, at the same price — the difference is in what the sheet is made from, not in how the card behaves or what it costs.
Frosted Transparent RPVC Cards
Translucent elements set into the layout, so the design reads with depth and shifts depending on what the card is resting against. A layered effect on a flat card, without foil or embossing. Printed on PVC with 70% recycled content. It runs on the same tooling, takes the same finishes and lasts as long as virgin PVC, at the same price — the difference is in what the sheet is made from, not in how the card behaves or what it costs.
Spot Varnish Matte Finish RPVC Cards
Gloss varnish applied to selected areas of an otherwise matte card. The contrast between the two finishes catches the light at different angles and gives a raised, three-dimensional impression without any change in thickness. Printed on PVC with 70% recycled content. It runs on the same tooling, takes the same finishes and lasts as long as virgin PVC, at the same price — the difference is in what the sheet is made from, not in how the card behaves or what it costs.
Find your fast lane
Hi, I’m Nemo! I’ve been watching closely as these wristbands are made and the materials are selected, so they gave me a job. Apparently, I have to work for my kibble now that I’m all grown up! They even gave me a title: Nordic Wristbands’ two-braincell customer service specialist. I’m not sure about that. Anyway, answer a few quick questions, and I’ll match you with the right material. I’ve seen Jone do it!
