IDSuperShop Honors Earth Day With Greener Products!

Truly, Earth should be honored everyday, because without a place to inhabit, we wouldn’t have any days to celebrate.

With respect and recognition for our planet, there are a number of ways we can reduce our impact. Some of which are how we produce, purchase, and consume products.

IDSupershop is excited to share a few of our energy saving, eco-friendly, and biodegradable products for your consideration of the Earth!

Energy Saving – ID Card Printer:

The HID FARGO HDP6600 offers all of the following in a single solution:

GreenCircle® certified energy savings
Ability to print up to 230 cards per hour (YMCK with transfer)
Patent-pending iON™ technology for unparalleled printer readiness and intelligent temperature control
Retransfer-based wasteless lamination
Simultaneous print and retransfer

Eco Friendly ID Badges

From businesses of various sizes with ID badge issuance needs, there are a number of ID cards you can choose from. For an entirely biodegradable ID solution, we recommend:

Blank White CR30/80 ID cards and Bio Card PLUS (White)

Both of these Blank White ID cards with or without the magnetic stripes are 100% Biodegradable within 1 – 5 years of disposal.
These PVC cards are just as durable and reliable as traditional PVC ID cards, but without the harmful environmental effects caused by regular non-biodegradable PVC.

What’s Better than Eco-Friendly Badges?

Digital Identification

Instead of issuing your staff or visitors physical copies of ID cards, issue your team digital credentials with ID card customizable software!

With any of the ASURE ID 7 Card Software licenses, you can create a digital barcode or QR code, scannable on your mobile device, to verify your employees or members identity and access permissions. HID Asure ID 7 Software offers a range of ID card printing licenses:

HID Asure ID 7 Solo: Great for entry-level, 50-200 employee ID cards
HID Asure ID Express: Great for a single location; can facilitate ID prints between 100-1,000 people at one site
HID® Asure ID® Enterprise: Leverage multiple licenses that all communicate and integrate with each other across campuses, with 100s of personnel (up to 1,000 per site)
HID Asure ID® Exchange: Every capability the Enterprise license offers; with multiple licenses communicating across unlimited locations and personnel

Going digital is an efficient step in mitigating waste, and can streamline convenience for your ID verification processes.

However, we know that’s not an option for every company, so if you’ve opted for the compostable ID cards, you can also partner it with biodegradable ID badge holders!
