Arthur Blank & Co. introduced CornCard USA, a corn-based plastic card that uses corn, an annually renewable and domestically grown resource as an alternative to traditional petroleum-based plastic cards. CornCard USA is identical to traditional plastic cards in look, feel, and durability while offering the same reliability and functionality.

“Major national retailers and quick service restaurants are already considering alternatives to traditional petroleum-based plastics for a variety of reasons, such as the stable prices and more environmentally friendly nature of corn produced right here in the U.S.,” said Eric Blank, executive vice-president, Arthur Blank & Co. “If you compare bushels of corn to barrels of oil over the past 5 years, crude oil prices have skyrocketed, while U.S. corn supplies and prices have remained relatively constant.”

The first volume manufacturer to offer corn-based plastic cards, Arthur Blank & Co. is proud to be the leader in the greening of the plastic card industry. CornCard USA, manufactured from NatureWorks PLA, is available in nearly the entire line of Arthur Blank & Co.’s product offerings including: gift, loyalty, debit, membership, and ID cards.
