It is obligatory to print the banking cards using the offset print technology. In order for a card to be printed with the signs and symbols of the international card organizations VISA or MasterCard, the respective print house should have a license to cover the strict requirements for the security of the process.
During the printing process the image is placed simultaneously on several cards, located on a plastic sheet via an offset method or silk-screen print. In many cases a combination of an offset and silk-screen printing methods is used. The offset method is used with high-quality color images. The silk-screen method is used to lay intensive colors and to print “metal” colors (gold, silver).
During the printing process the logos of the different international credit and debit cards VISA and MasterCard are printed using inks that have been strictly defined in advance.
In order to protect the plastic cards from damages, they are laminated, covered with a layer of transparent laminate. During the lamination process, under the influence of the high temperature and pressure, plastic and laminate layers are squeezed into one. This technology allows the production of plastic bank cards, which differ in their increased resistance against erasure and other mechanical influences, their long life and forgery protection. Once the card is laminated, it is cut and the holograms VISA or MasterCard, special signature panels, magnetic stripe and (or) chip are placed on it.
