The Dyestar C-A7-BK is a high-specification PVC card featuring a sleek, jet-black gloss finish. Unlike standard cards that have a white centre, these are manufactured with a solid black core. This ensures that the card remains entirely black even if the edges become worn. Crucially, these cards are food-safe certified, making them the premier choice for the UK hospitality and retail sectors, as well as high-end corporate identification.
Key Product Highlights
-
Solid Black Core: Eliminates the "white edge" typical of standard cards, providing a seamless, premium aesthetic across the entire card profile.
-
Food-Safe Certified: Specifically tested and safe for direct contact with food, making them ideal for deli counters, bakeries, and butchers.
-
High-Gloss Finish: A reflective, jet-black surface that provides a striking background for metallic or white text.
-
Standard CR80 Size: Manufactured to 85.60mm x 53.98mm, ensuring perfect compatibility with all standard UK price tag holders and ID accessories.

Primary Applications
The C-A7-BK is a versatile solution for organisations that demand both style and safety:

Retail Price Tags: The industry standard for high-end food displays in bakeries, fishmongers, and delis. They are wipe-clean, durable, and professional.
-
Buffet & Event Labelling: Used by UK hotels and caterers to label allergens and food types on buffet lines elegantly.
-
VIP & Tiered Membership: Frequently used for "Black Tier" or "Platinum" memberships in health clubs and private member associations.
-
Executive Staff ID: A sophisticated choice for corporate identification, particularly when paired with a silver or gold print.
-
Dark-Themed Branding: Perfect for brands with a monochrome aesthetic looking for a card that matches their identity perfectly.
Printing Advice for Black Gloss Cards
The Dyestar C-A7-BK is compatible with all leading ID card printers, including Magicard, Zebra, and Evolis. For the best results on a black base, we recommend:
-
Monochrome White Ribbons: This produces the classic "chalkboard" look that is highly popular for food retail and price labelling.
-
Metallic Gold & Silver: Using metallic resin ribbons on a black gloss background creates an ultra-premium, luxury feel for VIP and executive cards.
-
Hygienic Maintenance: For food-safe applications, these cards should be cleaned with food-safe sanitiser. The gloss finish is non-porous and highly resistant to moisture.
