Unmatched Durability:
Modiano cards are 100% plastic and will often last up to 50 to 100 times longer than paper-based or plastic-coated playing cards. These cards are extremely durable and will outlast regular playing cards by up to 100 times.
Modiano cards are substantially thicker and heavier than any other 100% plastic playing card in the market today. This premium thickness enables Modiano cards to retain their character and shape better than other 100% plastic playing cards. The heavier grade plastic provides superior resilience and ensures cards will not warp, crimp, or deteriorate through regular play.
Superior Handling and Performance:
Modiano cards are well-textured for ease of handling and shuffling. Unlike extremely smooth plastic cards that are difficult to control, Modiano's textured surface provides better grip and makes cards easier to shuffle and fan. You are less likely to lose control of the playing cards during cut, shuffle, or bridge.
The smooth handling characteristics make these cards perfect for dealing, fanning, and all card manipulations. Professional dealers and serious players appreciate the weight and feel of Modiano plastic cards.
Modiano cards pop with vibrant color and feature clean, timeless back designs that remain beautiful through years of play. The waterproof construction means you can clean them without damage, and they resist fading and marking from regular use.
Plain Design Philosophy:
The plain Poker Club design represents a no-frills approach that appeals to players who prefer classic simplicity over ornate patterns. This clean aesthetic allows the focus to remain on gameplay rather than visual distraction. The plain design is equally at home in casual home games, tournaments, or professional settings.
Modiano is recognized as a Historical Trademark of National Interest by Italy, an honor reserved for Italian companies with more than 50 years of history that have contributed to spreading and strengthening "Made in Italy" worldwide.
Whether you're a casual card player, serious poker enthusiast, game host, or someone who appreciates premium Italian craftsmanship, the Modiano Poker Club Plain delivers professional-grade performance with timeless simplicity and the distinctive quality that has made Modiano one of the world's most respected playing card manufacturers.
