Card 2

Vanguard ID Systems cards are designed for excellent performance and years of real world use. Printed on high strength Teslin®, these durable, waterproof cards won’t crack or peel - unlike PVC cards - so they’ll reflect the quality of your brand image use after use. In fact, our bar coded cards typically last up to 10 years.

Cards are available in 18 mil to 30 mil thicknesses. Options include a signature panel, matte lamination on the back of the card, and a bar code, magnetic stripe and/or RFID inlay. Cards can also be ordered with the DataGuard Security System™, our patented attached label, for maximum convenience and 100 percent data integrity.

Choose from stock graphics, use your own logo and messaging or let our professional designers create a look just for you.

Vanguard remains a leader in its field
Anyone giving a gift card for Christmas or carrying a supermarket rewards tag on a keychain or a library card in a wallet more than likely have had their hands on a Vanguard ID Systems product. The privately owned company, founded two decades ago by Richard O. Warther, produces the ubiquitous plastic cards and tags. Customers range from retailers to minor league baseball teams, with the company’s heaviest concentration in library and health clubs. At 53, Warther describes himself as “an old bar code guy.” In the early days of the technology, Warther worked for grocery store chains and later Graphic Technology and Data Document Systems, both in Kansas City, Kan. He founded Vanguard ID in 1987 with the help of several financial backers. “They put up the money, I supplied the knowledge and backbone,” Warther said.
