Membership and Loyalty Cards

At Performance Card Solutions, “Going Green” is a priority. Creating plastic printing processes that minimize or completely eliminate the footprint associated with printing on plastic is important to use and we’ve invested time, energy, creativity and years of expertise in pursuing this goal. We’ve developed some exciting Earth-friendly options and we’re constantly working to upgrade our efforts.


These initiatives are important because many of our clients report that their customers demand that their membership and loyalty cards – as well as other materials they receive – be green.


The market loves plastic for its versatility and durability plastic is an appealing material to use for a variety of products because it is often lightweight, flexible, resistant to weather, and generally is a sturdy option. Because of this appeal, its popularity among printers and those who need printed products has increased in recent years.


However, the same factors that make it “tough” can also make plastic difficult to dispose of when the plastic card or other product finally reaches the end of its long, sturdy road. Printing on plastic can causes problems for many printing companies, with the biggest issue being the difficulty associated with environmentally friendly plastic printed products. Because plastic is inherently harmful to the environment and there is such a strong demand for Green products, many printing companies run into issues.


We can print your membership and loyalty cards using an eco-friendly print process (no VOC’s) and provide options for recycled, recyclable, and biodegradable substrates. This commitment to the environment does not compromise quality. All of our printed plastic products have a premium look and feel, especially in comparison to standard paper printing. Moreover, this quality extends to all of the printing options we offer. Among them, high-gloss, matte, soft-touch and textures coatings are available.


How is this possible? UV printing is the answer. While many plastics are considered non-biodegradable, ultraviolet ink printing allows for environmentally friendly printing. These almost “magic” inks can penetrate plastic in ways conventional ink can’t. Applications include Point-of-Purchase signage, plastic cards, packaging, and promotional marketing materials, and, of course, membership and loyalty cards.


Always at the forefront of printing innovations, Performance Card Solutions has already faced these environmental challenges and developed solutions, with more green printing innovations coming all the time. This includes one of our latest innovations—we now offer our new E-card stock made from renewable wood fiber. E-Card Stock contains no PVC and is an alternative to plastic for gift, loyalty, promotional and membership cards.
