Plastics may not sound great. Especially since they are described as cold, shiny and hard. But, when it comes to gift cards, identification cards and the like, that's a good thing. Here, several companies display their newest plastic cards and explain their features.
USAdocufinish—Docufold
• A linerless, EZ-Release Card

• Card seals to standard size

• Made from a durable, laser-compatible polyester
"Docufold is a perfect solution for a durable, yet
duplex, laser-friendly affixed card application," said John W. McKillip, president/CEO.
