About ISRA
ISRA Cards designs, manufactures, and prints customisable and connectable materials and objects.
Both cards and packaging, the products offered by ISRA, are made in France with the shortest possible supply chains, aiming to minimise their environmental impact by prioritising paper over plastic through the ISBIO range.
ISRA operates in various sectors such as luxury, retail, tourism and entertainment, transportation, events, and sports. Our products are used in applications such as loyalty programs, payment (gift cards, virtual wallets), access control or ticketing, as well as authentication and identity.
Building on its historical printing activities and expertise in smart cards, ISRA is investing in Printed Electronics and aims to play a major role in this field in the coming years, particularly in Smart Packaging.
The History of ISRA CARDS
From its origins as a printing company, ISRA has retained a culture of excellence. In nearly 50 years of existence, ISRA has evolved its business while staying true to its roots, continually adding new skills. Early on, ISRA embraced the shift towards smart cards, recognising that its future depended on innovation.
ISRA has kept pace with technological advancements by making its cards increasingly smarter, first through the integration of chips, and later through contactless technologies. Simultaneously, ISRA has been a pioneer in sustainable development, working on eco-friendly alternatives to PVC since the late 2000s. ISRA was among the first to offer paper cards through its ISBIO range and to integrate electronics, particularly through printed electronics, which is one of the company’s new development areas.
Our Production Site
ISRA is located 2 hours from Paris and Marseille, and in close proximity to Lyon and Grenoble. The company has established its factory in Romans-sur-Isère, continuously upgrading it with more advanced technologies.
Recent years have seen a major expansion, including the creation of a personalisation workshop and the renovation of the administrative building. Most recently, ISRA made headlines by acquiring the AlphaJet, MGI’s 4.0 printing station, which required the setup of a dedicated workshop in a controlled environment.
