Plus-Card Biodegradable cards
Eagle launches industry first biodegrable ID cards
Eagle Technologies, one of Europe’s leading distributors of ID products, has expanded its Plus-Card™ range with an exciting new addition: Plus-Card Bio™ - the first of a series of environmentally conscious plastic cards for the desktop market.
Plus-Card Bio is Eagle Technologies response to the properties of normal plastics which last forever when discarded into the environment and add to the landfill problem. Unlike standard PVC cards, Plus-Card Bio™ is manufactured with revolutionary material that completely biodegrades within one to five years after constant exposure to a fertile environment where microorganisms are present; these include compost, landfill, rubbish tips, the ground, lakes, river and the ocean. All that is left behind is matter that can easily be worked into the soil or water and has no toxic effect to the surrounding environment.
Best of all, Plus-Card Bio™ will perform exactly like the current PVC cards that are currently in use. Under normal every day usage the cards maintain their integrity and can get wet, be stored as usual, off-set, litho and silk screen printed and embossed without breaking down.
The new Plus-Card Bio™ cards can be used with any of the extensive range of desktop card printers sold by Eagle Technologies.
