Clear, Frosted, and Translucent Cards

No card draws attention better than a clear, frosted, or translucent plastic card.

Well-designed clear plastic cards can be very difficult to print, so they are rarely seen.

This uniqueness factor is perfect for making a lasting and wide reaching impression.

– Customers love to hold on to clear or frosted plastic cards to show them to others.

Graphic Elements for Clear Cards

Printing a plastic card that is either clear, frosted, or translucent comes with a unique set of challenges. 

Because you can see an image on both sides, artwork design can be extremely important when printing on both sides.

Precision is key when printing quality clear cards.
