UltraCard is a high quality video grade PVC card stock with a polished scratch- and debris-reduced surface. A special laminate is bonded to the card during the manufacturing process to improve dye receptivity and increase card life. The card`s solid PVC design provides high image quality and medium flexibility and temperature durability. Durability for a card with a standard credit card thickness (30 mil) is estimated at 24 months or 3000 cycles or swipes through a test card reader. The card will start to bend or warp at about 130 degrees F- the temperature that your closed car can quickly reach on a hot summer day!
