Lamination of PVC and PETG Materials
The solvent-based ink series NoriCard and NoriCardLSI are suitable for decoration and
lamination of PVC lms at temperatures of °C (°F). If necessary, oset printability
can be improved by oset primer NoriCard078. The ink system NoriCardLSI oers
additional benets concerning occupational safety and environmental protection
since it is free of aromatic hydrocarbon solvents.
If you are looking for a UV curing solution, you will make the right choice with
NoriCure
®
CCI.
Furthermore, with NoriCure
®
CCILED we succeeded in developing an ink system,
which is perfectly matched to meet the requirements of curing via state-of-the-art
UVLED technology.
In addition to a range of basic color shades, we focus on our customers‘
requirements and are looking forward to realizing individual color shades and eects
according to your individual needs.
Screen Printing Solutions for Polycarbonate Cards
Protective Lacquers
Optimal surface protection on PVC and PC cards is achieved
by using high gloss and extremely scratch resistant
UVcuring lacquer NoriCure
®
CSR03, which protects
card products from harmful mechanical and
chemical impacts.
With NoriCure
®
CSR02 a protective
lacquer with a matt nish is available
additionally.
The new UV curing -component ink system NoriCure
®
EVO oers a
complete range of color shades including highly opaque white color
shades, which enable the realization of
window applications in the segment of
high quality polycarbonate cards and
convinces with excellent peel strength
at laminating temperatures of °C
(°F).

Signature Field Inks
All signature eld inks which are part of the solvent-based ink series NoriCardSG as
well as the UV curing ink series NoriCure
®
SF are available in dierent color shades
from colorless to highly opaque white as well as pigmented. Both inks and are
suited for printing on PVC and PC monocards and overlay lms of multilayer
cards. The printed signature elds can be signed smear-resistant with felt tip
and ballpen.
Bonding Agents / Adhesion Promoters
If a sucient peel strength in dicult applications is not
obtained, water-based bonding agent AquaPress
®
CA and
solvent-based bonding agent NoriPress
®
SMK are available.
Grades of the AquaPress
®
CA series are optimally tuned
to laminating temperatures between  to °C (to
°F) and furthermore odorless and have low VOC content.
Special Eects
Special Eects are outstanding eye-catcher, which can oen
be realized by screen printing only, because it is possible to
print high layer thickness and to process a broad range of
eect pigments.
Chrome-like eects can be produced by using the
solvent-based Screen Printing InkL67241.
Under the designation NoriCure
®
X-TRA special UV curing
eect color shades are available, for example chrome
or rainbow-like color shades, which can transform PVC
and PCcards in some special eye-catcher. For long-term
shiny appearance they can be laminated with an overlay
lm or overprinted with a protective lacquer such as
NoriCure
®
CSR03.
To achieve haptic surface eects on PVC and PC cards, the
use of the relief lacquer NoriCure
®
RSL, which is available in
glossy and matt nish as well as colorless or pigmented, is
recommended.
Personalization / Individualization
A possibility of personalization is thermal transfer printing. Good ink transfer
is not guaranteed necessarily on all card materials, a solution is provided
by NoriCure
®
TFL.
This coating provides good ink transfer on many commercially available
substrates using thermal transfer printing.

Screen Printing Solutions for
Laminated ID and Credit Cards
The importance of plastic cards is increasing.
It is impossible to imagine the world without
plastic cards in many areas of daily life – starting
with cashless payment systems such as bank
and credit cards, vouchers, membership cards
up to long-lasting ID documents. Of course, dierent
application areas lay down dierent requirements on the
materials used, which need to be taken by the lm on the
one hand and the ink on the other hand. As the majority
of card products consist of PVC materials, polycarbonate
substrates are used especially in the manufacture of high
quality and long-lasting IDcards.
To achieve your individual technical requirements and
design ideas Proell will support you with a comprehensive
range of high quality screen printing inks for printing on PVC
as well as PETG and PC substrates. We are looking forward to
nd individual solutions for your specic requirements.
High quality plastic cards are usually made up of various ink
and lm layers, where an overlay lm is applied as last layer
by means of lamination.
Our solvent-based and UV curing ink systems for lamination
do not only serve decorative purposes but provide a
long-term bonding between core and overlay lm aer
lamination. Here the screen printing process especially
shows its strength when coming to produce decorative
metallic eects and highly opaque ink layers.
In order to ensure the desired permanent perfect
appearance, it is recommended to apply an UV curing
protective lacquer onto the card surface to increase the
chemical and mechanical resistances of the lm material
and therefore extend the lifetime of plastic cards.
