Pentacard® CC-M730/18 is highly durable and ensures long life which is ideal for high-end applications like bank and credit cards. The film’s laminating temperature is engineered to provide the optimal processing window so as not to harm embedded chips and antennas; thus improving yield and quality while minimizing total cost per unit.

Pentacard® CC-M722V01 combines high durability and high Vicat values for high temperature applications. With these properties, this film is an ideal alternative to polycarbonate for ID card and security documents.

“The expansion of kp’s product portfolio with these new Pentacard® PETG films along with our existing broad range of Pentacard® PVC and ABS/PVC blend films continues to provide to our customers the broadest available selection of card films in the industry,” says Dr. Jürgen Bundschuh, Pentaplast’s business manager for card films. “Specifically the easy processability and high durability of Pentacard® PETG films meet the high security and quality needs of the card industry.”
