PVC Core Sheet vs PC Core Sheet
PVC Core Sheet
PVC core sheet is cost-effective, easy to process, and widely used for standard plastic cards, membership cards, gift cards, hotel cards, and general printed card production. It offers good printability, stable lamination, and flexible color customization.
PC Core Sheet
PC core sheet provides stronger heat resistance, impact resistance, and durability. It is suitable for high-security cards, driver licenses, identity cards, access cards, and applications requiring higher mechanical performance.
