Why should choose the Polycarbonate ( PC ) core sheet for ID nation card or Driving license ?

Choosing a polycarbonate (PC) core sheet for a national ID card ( or Driving license ) is widely considered best practice in government and secure ID applications. 

1. Exceptional Durability & Longevity

• Lifespan: 10+ years without delamination or warping.

• Resistant to: Heat, cold, moisture, chemicals, and UV exposure.

• Ideal for harsh environments or long-term use without reissuance.

2. High Security Capabilities

• Laser Engraving Compatibility:

  • Enables high-resolution black-and-white engraving inside the card layers.

  • Virtually impossible to tamper with or alter.

• Secure Layer Bonding:

  • Polycarbonate layers fuse together permanently during lamination (no adhesives), making delamination or forgery extremely difficult.

3. Tamper & Counterfeit Resistance

• Supports multiple embedded security features:

  • Guilloches

  • OVDs (optically variable devices)

  • Tactile elements

  • Windows or lenticular images

• The monolithic structure (single material type) ensures any tampering is easily visible.

4. Precision in Personalization

• Compatible with laser engraving and secure inkjet/thermal transfer printing.

• Ideal for embedding biometric data (e.g., facial image, fingerprint, iris) securely.

5. Eco-Friendly Compared to PVC

• No toxic chlorine compounds, unlike PVC.

• Recyclable in high-temperature industrial systems.

• Longer lifespan = less frequent replacements = reduced plastic waste.

6. International Standard Compliance

• Used in ICAO-compliant ePassports, eIDs, and driver's licenses.

• Trusted by governments worldwide for eID programs and border security.

You should choose polycarbonate core sheets for national ID cards because they offer unmatched security, longevity, tamper resistance, and compliance with global ID standards—making them ideal for high-integrity identity documents.
