  • Publication number: 20250130502
    Abstract: A data carrier extends along an extension direction (E) and comprises at least one carrier body and at least one processing layer. The processing layer, at least in an unprocessed state of the processing layer, comprises one or more reactive elements and one or more unreactive elements. The reactive elements are configured to interact with impinging electromagnetic radiation (R) upon a processing of the processing layer. The processing layer, in a processed state of the processing layer, comprises one or more reacted elements being generated from the reactive elements. The processing layer in the processed state furthermore comprises one or more further reacted elements being generated from one or more of the unreactive elements upon the interaction of the reactive elements with the impinging electromagnetic radiation (R) and furthermore comprises one or more unreactive elements remaining non-interacting.

  • Patent number: 11562193
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a support body in a card format, with a graphic customization, that has a surface finishing effect that is more or less smooth, rough, mirrored or matte on the support body. The method includes supplying a support body having a layer of material configured to allow a marking by punching or lamination. The layer is exposed on the main external face and the surface finishing effect is equivalent to that obtained by a step of marking or lamination while not including a step of depositing varnish.
