Abstract: A plastic sheet for printing e.g., credit cards, and a method for manufacturing the plastic sheet. The plastic sheet includes at least one white cap layer and at least one colored corestock. The white cap layer may include a thin printable plastic. The white cap layer may also include a gauge in the range of 12 to 127 microns (0.0005 to 0.005 inch) thick, preferably 25 to 76 microns (0.001 to 0.003 inch), and most preferably 25 to 50 microns (0.001 to 0.002 inch). The white cap layer may further include a plastic material e.g., polyester (PET), polypropylene (PP), poly vinyl chloride (PVC), polystyrene (PS), poly lactic acid (PLA), or the like. Preferably, the white cap layer may include PET or PVC. Most preferably, a matte PVC may be used as the white cap layer in order to achieve excellent ink receptibility in printing.
