The service bureau features a variety of advanced machines for encoding, printing, personalization, and coating of cards. The technology employed includes industrial machines for rapid large-scale projects, as well as semi-industrial printers for on-demand single card printing.
The term “personalization” refers to adding personal details to the cards, such as text, photos, custom graphics, and security elements to prevent forgery.
The service bureau specializes in the personalization of cards, including:
- Printing cards with variable data and personal identification details.
- Embossing data and personal identification details.
- Printing cards with personalized photos or a series of images and additional security measures.
- Printing digital signatures, barcodes, and encoding magnetic and contact components on the card.
The card manufacturing process also involves background printing, image printing, and coating with materials that enhance durability and prolong the life of the card. Additional security features are integrated to prevent counterfeiting and data alterations.
The service bureau is operated by a professional team, including graphic designers, operators, and technical support staff. The computer and maintenance teams assist in operating the systems within the center and also provide support to customers.
At the company’s service bureau, cards are also issued for various clients necessitating strict compliance with physical and information security protocols, as defined by the project.
