Miami-based PromoCard Services, a leader in PIN-based promotions, announced it is offering a new eco-friendly CornCard for card-based programs. The new cards are produced with NatureWorks PLA corn plastic, a substrate manufactured from corn, making it an abundant and annually renewable resource. PLA is fully biodegradable because it is derived from plant-based materials. Whether it is composted or landfilled, PLA will biodegrade into its constituent organic parts.
Since corn is domestically grown, it is readily available for manufacturing, supports US farmers, the US economy, and reduces dependency on foreign petroleum supplies.
CornCards are virtually identical in look and feel to traditional credit, debit, and loyalty cards, and provide all the same convenience and functionality. PromoCard Services said that any of its card-based promotional programs can be created with the CornCard, including their music download cards, ring tone cards, hotel cards, movie cards, phone cards and dining cards.
“On a global scale, we are finally understanding the impact petroleum-based plastics have on the environment,” explained Paul Sorota, president of PromoCard Services. “This awareness has prompted us to offer our clients an earth-friendly alternative. At only a few cents more per card, companies can create exciting card-based promotions while giving back to the environment. It’s a win-win for everyone.”
