Ultra Pro Plastic Poly OPP Card Sleeves Protect Your Custom Box Trading Cards

The manufacturing process of game card sleeves can vary depending on the manufacturer, materials and design. The following is an overview of the production process of general game card sets:

1. Material preparation: First, the materials for making the game card sleeve are prepared. Common materials include plastic materials such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and polypropylene (PP). These materials are usually supplied in rolls or sheets.
2. Cutting: Depending on the required size and shape, the ferrule manufacturer will use cutting tools, such as a die cutter or laser cutter, to cut the plastic material into appropriately sized pieces. These pieces will form the basis of a single game card sleeve.
3. Embossing and Printing: Some game card sleeves may have embossed or printed decorative effects. This can be achieved by using heat pressing technology or a printing press on the plastic sheet. Embossing can add texture, pattern or logo, while printing can add color, image or logo to the card sleeve.
4. Folding and welding: Fold the plastic sheet into the shape of the card sleeve according to the design. Typically, two or more pieces of plastic are welded together to form the bottom and sides of the ferrule. Welding usually uses heat or ultrasonic technology to ensure the ferrule is secure and sealed.
5. Inspection and Packaging: The produced game card sleeves will undergo quality inspection to ensure that they meet specifications and requirements. They are then packaged into sets or packs and ready for delivery to distributors or end users.
