If you're looking for tailored plastic cards produced exactly to your requirements, you've certainly come to the right place. Whether you need ID cards, security encoded cards, membership cards or loyalty cards, Tailored Card Services (TCS) can provide a customised solution. With considerable experience and expertise in the field, TCS offers an unrivalled design and print service for businesses, schools and clubs, listening to their needs at every step of the process to ensure 100% satisfaction.  If you would rather print your own cards, we can provide sensibly priced printer packages and consumables. We also supply a range of accessories to complement and protect your cards, including custom printed lanyards, card holders, badge reels and strap clips.

We make a point of offering top quality cards at great prices. In fact, a number of our prospective customers make the mistake of thinking that we sacrifice quality for low prices. This is most definitely not the case. We achieve low prices not by sacrificing quality, but through keeping our overheads at a minimum.

So if you're looking for ID cards or loyalty cards for your business, school or club, then why not give TCS a try. We'd love the chance to show you how great our products are. Give us a call today to discuss your requirements.

Bureau Service

If you want to save on the outlay of purchasing your own ID card printing facilities, our bureau service is at hand to do the work for you. With considerable experience in printing ID cards, membership cards and security encoded cards, TCS offers to personalise, print and deliver your cards directly to your door. Our cards conform to the relevant ISO standards and are printed using re-transfer or dye-sublimation technologies. We employ state-of-the-art re-transfer machines to produce first class edgeless cards with information printed IN the card, rather than on top of it. Our Bureau service offers an extremely fast turnaround, so if you need cards in a hurry, make sure you come directly to TCS.

ID Accessories

Tailored Card Services Ltd offers a range of top quality ID accessories to complement our ID cards. By listening to our customers' requirements, we've come up with a number of customised products to enhance the safety, security and appeal of your ID cards. We have expanded our line of premium lanyards, which include brand new attachment devices. Lanyards can be custom printed with your own company logos and corporate messages. Also available are badge reels, card holders and strap clips. A full brochure is available on the TCS website: just follow the link!

Printer Ribbons

If you're looking to invest in your own card printing facilities, then you'll need high quality printers and associated consumables, both of which can be purchased through TCS Ltd. We supply a range of printer ribbons which are compatible with all of our printers. However, if you should require ribbons for other printers, just give us a call and we’ll help you find a competitively priced solution. Indeed, TCS is dedicated to offering great services, value and results; we can usually beat any quoted price. Ribbons immediately available include XID YMCK colour ribbon and re-transfer film (1000 prints per roll), XID 1.00mm and 0.5mm patch laminate film (550 prints per roll), Zebra YMCKO i series ribbons and ribbon cartridges, and Hiti YMCKO CS-3 series ribbons (200 prints per roll).

Cleaning Cards

It has been proven that over 80% of card printer and reader failures are the result of poor maintenance. Neglecting the maintenance of your devices could result in lost production time, customer dissatisfaction, frequent service calls and costly replacements. That's why it's a good idea to keep your machines clean with presaturated cleaning cards. Our cleaning cards are manufactured using approved materials and contain 99.9% isopropyl alcohol. We supply cleaning cards for thermal printheads, PVC printers, magnetic stripe readers, smart card readers, check readers and more. We also have presaturated cleaning pens and swabs.

ID Badges & School ID Badges

Using ID badges in your company, college or school helps protect students, staff and property. Our ID badging system allows you to easily produce professional, secure and cost-effective ID badges from your own premises. They can include mag strips, bar codes and other encoding techniques for superior security. Alternatively, if you don't want to pay out for your own facilities, why not let us do it for you by choosing our Bureau service? We can have your cards with all accessories at your door within three working days!

Plastic Membership Cards

If your club, society or business requires membership cards, TCS has all the facilities to provide them. We offer a full range of plastic membership cards to help you strengthen the bond between your organisation and its members. We use dye sublimation or re-transfer processes that ensure a top quality, professional print of your image. Our membership cards have been used for golf clubs, leisure centres, societies, hotels, restaurants, social clubs and businesses in all sectors. Membership cards may be printed with a single colour, two colour or full colour print and can be made to include magnetic stripe encoding, signature panels and barcodes.

Plastic Id Badge & Card Holders

Because ID cards can be costly to replace, it's a good idea to keep them suitably protected to prolong their life. Tailored Card Services Ltd supplies a range of plastic ID badge holders and card holders that are designed for the protection and display of your ID card in a convenient and professional manner. You can choose from a range of plastic or vinyl holders in a variety of colours.  Lanyards and clips are easily attached, but if your ID cards are likely to be swiped regularly, grippers or badge reels are the best option.

Printers

If you're looking to print your own ID cards, membership cards and security encoded cards, it's a good idea to purchase a printer from a company with real experience in the field. Because we use printers in our own Bureau service, we know which models are the most suitable for any given application. We make available both re-transfer and direct card printing technologies. Re-transfer printers print information onto a film which is laminated onto the card surface, while direct card printers do exactly what the name suggests.
