Recarding Services

ColorID’s Recarding Service allows your institution to outsource your entire recarding event to ColorID. Many offices have state of the art carding centers that can manage the day to day traffic of new card production; however, when the entire institution needs to be recarded the extra strain this puts on the resources can be enormous and expensive. ColorID’s applies its years of experience working with card offices around the world to quickly and efficiently recard your entire facility.

SAMPLE NEW CARD DATA

TESTIMONIALS

Jason Friedberg, Bucknell University

"We recently undertook a campus wide security initiative and installed an enterprise class, iCLASS system from scratch. Throughout the entire project ColorID was invaluable by assisting with our technology and hardware decisions which in turn helped us save valuable time and money.
ColorID recarded 10,000 of our new multi-class ID cards. This included personalized printing and holograms, dual mag stripe encoding and smart card chip data transfers. Their sales department and engineering staff worked closely with us to meet our needs and their products exceeded our expectations, delivering all cards and hardware on time and on budget. We look forward to a long, personal relationship with ColorID!"

Robert Leahy, Mass General Hospital

"When we changed from a local supplier with local representatives there was some concern about the lack of someone we could meet with face to face, but ColorID has more than made up for that with their attention to detail and follow up communications. From card projects to printing supplies and printer repairs the quality of their products and service has been outstanding. We’re so glad we made the switch!”

Kathleen Watson, Big Bear Mountain Resorts

“ColorID has been both helpful and professional. They make the process of ordering supplies simple without delay. Their knowledge and friendly attitude makes doing business with them a pleasure.”
