Oberthur Technologies, a global leader of manufacturing and personalization services, now offers Drop-on-Demand (DoD) printing to provide more options for customers looking for a single vendor to provide card design, manufacturing, personalization, fulfillment and inventory management. The new high speed, UV-curable ink jet printer for card personalization allows Oberthur Technologies to target prepaid and non-secure customers. The increased printing capabilities provide additional printing and design options, allowing the company to meet new demands as they arise.

“Oberthur Technologies’ experience in the rapidly growing prepaid segment indicated that DoD printing would fulfill a key customer need,” said Martin Ferenczi, Managing Director, Americas, Card Systems Division at Oberthur Technologies. “Our new DoD printing option further strengthens our ability to offer non-secure customers a single source solution, from card design to fulfillment.”

Oberthur Technologies’ single source solution include Smart Design, which provides skilled card designers to create a full range of creative design ideas for your cards while utilizing Smart Plastics, Oberthur’s comprehensive range of innovative card bodies, finishes and inks. Additionally, Oberthur Technologies provides a state-of-the-art, ISO 9001 and 14001-certified manufacturing facility in Exton, PA., and a service center for card personalization in Chantilly, VA that produces eye-catching and ultra-secure j-hook packaging, including Oberthur’s patent-pending Smart Seal.
