Abstract: Methods and systems for manufacturing environmentally-safe cardstock for cards are provided. An environmentally safe core material may be printed with content using environmentally safe ink. Further, a layer of environmentally safe laminate material and annotation material may be applied to the core material. The layer is adhered to the core material by activating an environmentally safe adhesive associated with the laminate material through application of pressure without requiring application of heat.

Abstract: Various aspects are directed toward the fabrication of cards, cardstock and card products made from renewable and/or inert materials. Information cards fabricated from such materials are disclosed. Information cards generally include annotation regions, and often include protective layers fabricated from renewable polymers or inert polymers. Methods directed toward the fabrication of renewable cards, card products and cardstock are disclosed.
