ID Cards

Secure identification for people and organisations

ID cards are essential wherever identification, access control and verification are required, from employee and student ID to visitor passes, contractor credentials and membership cards. 

At Certus, we design and produce secure ID cards tailored to your organisation. From durable eco-PVC and recycled PVC cards to fully personalised features, our secure UK production facilities ensure every card is produced accurately and delivered when it’s needed.

Why ID Cards Matter

01.

Provide clear visual identification for staff, students and visitors

02.

Support access control and building security systems

03.

Enable attendance tracking and operational management

04.

Create professional, consistent identification across organisations

Reliable identification

From workplaces and universities to healthcare providers and membership organisations, ID cards provide a simple and effective way to verify identity and control access.

A well-designed ID card programme supports security, helps staff and visitors identify authorised individuals and enables integration with systems such as building access, attendance tracking and membership verification.

At Certus, we produce high-quality ID cards designed for everyday use. Our secure production processes allow cards to be personalised with photos, names, barcodes, QR codes or embedded technology, creating cards that are durable, professional and ready to integrate into your existing systems.

Why choose Certus Card Group?

With over 46 years of experience producing secure cards, Certus supports organisations across the UK with reliable ID card production and fulfilment.

Our team works with you to develop ID card programmes that are secure, scalable and easy to manage, whether you need large-scale card issuance or ongoing card production for new staff, students or members.

Our ID cards are designed for organisations that require durable, professional credentials for everyday use. Produced in our UK facilities, they combine high-quality print, flexible personalisation and reliable materials to support identification and access control across a wide range of environments.

Sustainable materials. Produced using Eco PVC and Recycled PVC, offering a more responsible alternative to virgin plastic while maintaining durability for everyday use.

Professional finish. Choose from a range of print and finishing options to create ID cards that present your organisation professionally.

Identification & technology Cards can incorporate photographs, names, barcodes, QR codes and embedded RFID or NFC technology to support identification and access systems.

Express service. For orders of 5,000 cards or fewer, our Plastic Card Hub service provides a fast and efficient way to produce ID cards when time is critical.

Many ID cards, particularly those issued as part of membership or access programmes, are delivered directly to individuals. Certus produces a wide range of carriers to support secure delivery and presentation, from personalised letters and envelopes to premium presentation wallets. Many organisations choose a mix of carrier formats depending on how cards are issued and distributed.

Sustainable materials Produced using paperboard and paper materials with water-based adhesives, creating a widely recyclable carrier solution.

Personalisation Letters and envelopes can be personalised and matched with card carriers to create fully personalised, ready-to-distribute mailings.

Membership & programme support Carriers can include personalised vouchers, information inserts or programme materials for membership schemes.

Premium finishes A range of print and finishing options allow carriers to deliver a more premium presentation where required.

Multi-channel delivery

ID card programmes often require flexible fulfilment to support both large-scale issuance and ongoing card production as people join an organisation. Certus provides fulfilment services designed to support these operational needs.

Direct to your organisation

Cards can be delivered in bulk to your offices, campuses or facilities ready for internal distribution.

Direct to employees or members

We can produce personalised cards and ship them directly to individuals as they join your organisation.
