Green and Economical: Our Paper Hotel Key Cards Transform the Hospitality Experience

As seasoned experts in the hospitality industry, we understand our clients’ commitment to environmental sustainability. This often means moving away from cost-effective plastic cards. With this in mind, our goal has been to marry sustainability with cost-efficiency. After years of research and development, we are proud to introduce our innovative paper hotel key cards, which address the longstanding issues commonly associated with paper cards.

Full Functionality

Just like plastic hotel key cards, our paper hotel key cards can be equipped with advanced features, making them fully functional for various applications.  Compatible with HF, UHF, and LF chips of mainstream systems, our paper cards cover a wide range of RFID needs such as access control or contactless payments in hotels. For  systems that rely on magnetic stripe technology, our paper cards come equipped with durable Hico/Loco magnetic stripes. This feature ensures compatibility with existing card readers and systems. Adding to their functionality, our paper cards can also include barcodes. This is particularly useful for loyalty programs, identification purposes, or any application where scanning is necessary.

Cost-Effective and Lightweight

Paper cards are inherently lighter than their plastic counterparts. This might seem like a small detail, but it has significant implications, especially when it comes to logistics and distribution. The lightweight nature of paper cards means that they are easier and cheaper to transport. This results in reduced shipping costs. Besides the direct financial benefits, the eco-friendly nature of paper cards also contributes to indirect cost savings. Businesses that use sustainable paper cards can leverage this aspect in their marketing and customer relations. This can lead to improved brand loyalty, translating to long-term financial benefits.

Comparable Strength to Plastic Cards

A common problem with many card materials is fraying or curling at the edges, especially with repeated use.  We use specialized machinery to laminate the cards, ensuring they remain firm and intact even after multiple uses, without fraying or curling edges.

Water-Resistant Coating

Our paper cards are designed to withstand common wet conditions, meaning they won’t be damaged by rain or accidental spills Beyond protecting the card itself, the water-resistant coating also helps in preserving the print quality. But no worries, although we use this protective coating, our paper cards retain their functionality, and remain lightweight and easy to handle.

Optimal Flatness

A key challenge with paper-based cards is their tendency to bend or warp over time, which can significantly affect both their functionality and appearance. To address this, we  select premium, high-density paper materials to provide the card with a solid base that holds its shape. Moreover, we utilize industrial-grade press machines to apply a uniform, high-pressure force across the surface of each card.

Ideal Thickness with Rigidity

Our paper cards offer the same thickness as plastic cards but still retain a stiff and sturdy form.
