RFID Material Guide
PVC
Our regular PVC RFID cards are made from quality, durable plastic and are available with a Matt or Gloss finish. They are 820 microns, which is a bit thicker than a standard credit card to contain the chip.
Please note that the technology chip contained within the card is not recyclable or biodegradable.
Biodegradable PVC
Our Biodegradable PVC RFID cards contain an additive that means they will degrade and wear down in microbe rich environments such as biologically active landfill. In terms of print finish, you won’t notice much difference to a regular PVC card.
Please note that the technology chip contained within the card is not recyclable or biodegradable.
They are 820 microns, which is a bit thicker than a standard credit card to contain the chip.
100% Recycled PVC
Our 100% recycled PVC cards are made from 100% recycled plastic (R-PVC), with a 100% recycled film applied for durability. This post-consumer recycled PVC material is sifted, washed, sterilised and separated to remove contaminants, resulting in a quality material.
They are 820 microns, which is a bit thicker than a standard credit card to contain the chip.
Please note that the technology RFID chip contained within the card is not recyclable or biodegradable.
Bamboo and Wood
Our Wood RFID cards are available in Bamboo, Beech, Birch, Black Walnut and Cherry. They are sourced from an FSC-Certified supplier.
As wood and bamboo is a natural product, there will be differences in the grain and print finish/engraving between each card. This is what makes them unique.
The cards themselves will naturally degrade over time, however the chip within the cards is not recyclable.

Custom RFID Common FAQs
Read our FAQs for questions about our Custom RFID Cards.
Can you send me a sample RFID card to test on my system before I order?
Yes, we always recommend testing one of our cards on your system to double check they work as you’d expect before ordering.
Please contact us and we’ll send one out to you.
Do you offer more sustainable options to virgin plastic?
Yes. We now offer Wood and Bamboo RFID Cards, plus Biodegradable and Recycled Plastic options.
Please contact us for more information or view our ECO-Friendly RFID Range.
Are you a registered MIFARE® partner?
Yes. We are a registered MIFARE® partner.
You can check our credentials here.
All our MIFARE® products have genuine NXP chips so you can buy with confidence.
I use a MIFARE® card currently, will a Fudan card work on my system?
Fudan is a compatible technology to MIFARE®, so it’s likely that it will work on your system, however we recommend getting a sample card from us first to test.
Do your RFID Key Cards work with Ving, Onity, Salto or Dormakaba?
Yes, we provide custom programmed key cards for all hotel key card systems, in both plastic and wood.
We will always send you a sample to test first, to ensure they work on your specific system before ordering.
Do you offer a more sustainable RFID Keyfob?
Yes. We offer Wood RFID 1K Keyfobs that have a Fudan chip, which is compatible with MIFARE®.
We can also customise these to your requirements.
Is a matt or gloss finish better?
It depends on what you want your cards to do and long you expect them to be in use, but there are definitely times when we would recommend matt over gloss due to the fact that it doesn’t show up scratches or smudges as easily.
Can I include a number range on my cards?
Yes. You can add number ranges, individual names and personalised details onto each individual card.
We refer to this as variable data as it changes on each card.
There is a small additional cost for this on top of the card price.
I’m not sure what features I need on my cards, can you help?
If you’re unsure about whether you need to add extra features like barcodes, embossed numbers or spot varnish, give one of our friendly team a call.
We’ll run through your requirements to make sure you aren’t paying for extra features you don’t need.
