Case Study: Kalunga expands ID card offerings and cuts issuance costs with HID FARGO printers

Kalunga saves 70% per ID card with HID

Kalunga, the largest Brazilian distributor of office and school supplies, sought to expand its product line by offering a solution for printing high-quality, inexpensive ID cards. The challenge was to find a supplier whose printers were advanced, secure, low-cost, and compact, and that was available locally to facilitate support. Partner HID Global provided the ideal solution with its HID FARGO DTC1250e ID card printers.

The implementation of HID's printers, Asure ID software, and UltraCards was highly successful. Kalunga has sold over 50 printers and 200,000 cards to date. Customers reported significant savings, with one school saving over 70% per card and reducing issuance time from five days to real time, and a club reporting a 55% cost reduction. HID's solution perfectly met the needs of Kalunga's target market.
