About this product
An ordinary printed card is white inside, and the white shows along every edge. A colored core card is made from PVC dyed right through, so a black card stays black from every angle. It is the detail that makes a key card feel considered, and it pairs well with a single-color foil or spot UV logo.
Cores come in black, blue, red, green and yellow as standard, with other colors made to order. The chip is matched to your lock system like any other card we supply.
