A status symbol to some, a cost reducing card to others, they are the most desired
playing cards in the world. They look different and feel different, because they are different.
KEM is a 60 year old company that manufactures only one product, cellulose acetate
playing cards which are 100% plastic. They do not use vinyl, which is the raw material
used by all other manufacturers for their so-called "plastic cards". They are the only
company in the world with the ability to manufacture cards from cellulose acetate.
Although KEM is a relatively expensive card to purchase, they are the least expensive on a per-play
basis. They last at least 30 times longer than a paper card and considerably longer than
a vinyl card. Also, acetate will not warp or stick together as many other cards will.
KEM cards are long lasting, odorless and washable, resist scuffing and breaking, are
clean and crisp, are fresh and flexible, and come in many varieties, including the following:
