Overview Specifications

HDP® Materials

  • HDP Print Ribbons and Film:

    High Definition Printing™ ribbons and HDP Film combine to produce virtually tamperproof and durable cards with crisp, 300 dpi images - even on the surface of technology cards.

  • Cards:

    Video-grade PVC UltraCard™ card stock with polished, scratch- and debris-reduced surfaces optimize the quality of your printed images.

  • Overlaminates:

    Applying an overlaminate to your cards not only improves durability, it greatly increases the security of the card. Overlaminates with standard or custom holograms create an ID card that is difficult to forge, yet easy to verify.
